You want to drain more often when new as the wear metals are accumultating fast when new and much of that is too small for the filter to remove.
You will not have a lubrication failure not changing more often and Saab does not expect that there will be any related engine failures within the warranty period. But by changing oil more often when new you can eliminate some wear.
All of this is basic and has nothing to do with any specific new engine.
So what to do? Are you wanting to keep the vehicle for the long haul and many years? Then you will want to spend the money on more oil and filters when new.
