Elegant, innovative and highly effective: the Saab Concept Car PhoeniX presents the design features and technologies that will shape the next generation of Saab cars.
Based on a new architecture that will enable the next Saab 9-3, Saab introduced 'aeromotional' Phoenix Design: A visual evocation of the principles of aerodynamic design and a passion for innovation that inspired the creators of the first car Saab Ursaab iconic.
Phoenix Saab embraces the drop, "liquid metal" forms and the canopy jet drama inspired by the greenhouse, which is to give fresh expression signature "curve" and translucent ice block Saab design themes.

Lean, muscular shape allows exceptionally low coefficient of resistance, only 0.25 and are also examining the management of air flow through the distinctive lateral "winglets".
Butterfly doors open easily to give 2 +2 cabin that combines the simplicity of the technique. This is a minimalist, "stripped" feeling, including a new expression of Saab's driver focused on the layout and the debut of the show IQon innovative Saab and communication system. In true Saab tradition also has a surprisingly different cargo deck.
"Phoenix creates a new framework for the future of Saab design the product," says Jason Castriota, Executive Director of Design at Saab Automobile. "It symbolizes the rebirth of an innovative spirit and passion that drove the Saab to build its first car. We are introducing a DNA of vision in front of what we call" aeromotional "design, increasing the feeling of strength and softness. This design shape and differentiation of the portfolio of future models of Saab. "
During her undulating body, install innovative Phoenix Saab engines with an electric rear axle combined with a sophisticated 200 hp, the 1.6-liter gasoline turbo. The result is an intelligent hybrid four-wheel drive capability, which increases driving pleasure while reducing fuel consumption. Combined fuel economy and CO2 emissions are projected cycle of only 5.0 l/100 km and 119 g / km.

The design Aeromotional
Phoenix Saab theme "aeromotional" was inspired by Saab's aviation roots and draws a Ursaab clause, a prototype designed by engineers from the air that has created the first generation of Saab cars.
Complete Concept Saab Phoenix is apparently shaped by the wind. Closely-rich liquid as the skin, dark hole, remember to drop the ice wedges, and seems to explode from the center of the well-muscled body. Two large waves to flow along the hood of the windscreen pillars veiled, as if barely able to contain a strong structure below.
At the rear, so the black screen bursts through the outer skin of the rear tires, the conical shape suggests teardrop style rear Ursaab, while "sawed off" Kamm tail echoes a form from the first Saab convertible, the Sonett.
The low front style has a strained interpretation of the Saab signature three-port grille. A central wing body color is now dominant, according to the minimalist design of the car, LED headlights are almost invisible on the end. The new grille and hood forms are among the topics like you see in the future production model Saab.
The opening of the butterfly doors provide better access to the cabin floor. No door handles and mirrors to interrupt the air visible, and thin stems, small chambers offer a glimpse back.
On the roof "winglets" allows Saab Concept Phoenix, which cleaves the air as efficiently as possible. They channel the airflow side of the machine and directly above the shelf, reducing the lift for greater stability without increasing resistance.
Minimalist Interior
In true Scandinavian tradition, adopts the 2 +2 cabin in a clean, minimalist look. It has "removed" feeling of a racing car, with shell seats and metallic interior sections that mimic the grid presented in a roll cage.
Fresh look is Saab's traditional, driver focused on the layout tool. Round-shaped pod in front of the driver is equipped with a jet engine afterburner, which is in the data alongside the Head-Up Display.
An angle of 45 degrees to the driver, a separate module houses the Saab Infotainment IQON and advanced communications. For good ergonomics, the 8-inch touch screen is the closest to the fingertips of the driver and the steering wheel.
Saab IQON (see separate release for the details) is a revolutionary platform vehicle communication using Google's operating system AndroidTM. Based on the pioneering "open innovation" with the third party service providers and application developers, which includes an integrated platform that seamlessly connects to the Internet when the engine is running. The touch screen allows access to entertainment and audio streaming, online browsing, storing music on board and as a smartphone application downloads.
Red illumination for all instruments and ambient lighting of the passenger brings warmth and emotion to the cabin. This includes ground, where the light pipes are exposed through the perforations in the black blankets. It's all part of the new "design strategy involving fire and ice aeromotional" effect.
The Phoenix Bridge Saab concept disguises a rounded rear tailgate open at depth. Provides access to a flat load platform, including folding rear and a track to load cargo adaptable.

Efficient propulsion
During its sculpted hood and under the loading deck, Phoenix Saab Concept Saab's rightsizing strategy powertrain progress. Its propulsion system combines a highly efficient 1.6-liter turbo engine with an innovative electric drive to rear wheels.
The compact engine, gasoline contains all aluminum 200 hp (147 kW) and includes variable valve timing and lift control and functionality to start / stop, minimum parasitic losses and fuel cut-off function. A stainless steel tank equipped, which is lighter and less expensive than conventional plastic design,
The engine is backed by Saab eXWD innovative system. It consists of a housing of the drive unit behind a 25 kW (34 hp) electric motor / generator powered by a small battery. Braking is used to maintain the battery charge.
Currently in development for the next generation of Saab cars, the hybrid propulsion system allows the benefits of traction and reduces fuel consumption. Using a six-speed manual transmission, economy projected combined fuel cycle and CO2 emissions are just 5.0 l/100 km and 119 g / km.
The driver can choose one of three eXWD use of space. The default mode the exact fuel efficiency and CO2 to reduce the burden of steering the gasoline engine at low speeds, the Sport mode includes a maximum power of the rear axle torque vectoring on a larger scale and how the traction control allows an excellent take-off tires and the slippery conditions.
Inside and out, the Phoenix Saab introduces the new design directions and technologies that are part of the future Saab products.
