was presented in great detail by John Libbos the 9-3 Brand Manager at SOC07 this weekend. Saab will be the first manufacturer to use it on a production car. Another European brand may follow in MY 09. Saab is now the center of excellence for the XWD system which will invariably go on other GM vehicles. It will be on the V6 as an option initally. It is not available on the convertible primarily because of platform modifications required for structural integrity that limit the space needed to install the XWD components. It adds about 100 lbs to the car and will probabaly be competatively priced with similar (although none are as good)systems. It is a remarkable system and Saab is ahead of the competition for a change. Availabilty will be late Spring as of now. Thanks to John for a great presentation!.
