Fiat/Opel merger will affect SAAB

According to this article, and I know it is only an article, if GM goes ahead with it's plan to take over Fiat, SAAB would eventually produce RWD and AWD automobiles only. Sounds a little weird at first but if you think of it, it would make SAABs unique again, not rebadged fancy Opels.
Here is an excerp of the linked article:
GM executives say they have already worked out detailed plans. For example, Fiat would take the lead on diesels and Opel on gasoline engines.
Fiat would lead small-car development. Opel would head development of compact and mid-sized cars. Saab would lead in premium segment cars, which would likely feature rear- and all-wheel drive only.
