New 9-3 Viggen Convertible and 5-Door Models
For 2000, Saab offers a complete line of 9-3 Viggen models - adding a
Convertible and 5-Door variant to the recently-introduced Coupe. These new
models feature the same performance-enhancing upgrades from which the Coupe
benefits. The 9-3 Viggen convertible will be the highest-performing
convertible Saab has ever produced and the 5-door model will combine the
Viggen's outstanding performance characteristics with additional passenger
comfort and versatility.
Increased Horsepower and Torque for 2000
Saab's top performers now deliver 230 horsepower at 5,500 rpm and 258
lbs.-ft. of torque from a low 2,500 rpm all the way up to 4,500 rpm. This
broad range of maximum torque provides Viggen drivers with even more power
on-demand for safe overtaking and spirited driving.
Additional Exterior Color Choices
All three Viggen models are now available in two new colors, Black and
Silver, in addition to the previous Viggen exclusive Lightning Blue. Less
than 3,000 9-3 Viggens will be produced for the world in model year 2000,
with 1,000 of them coming to the U.S. market.
