The uniqu e Saab feeling.

The Saab 900 stands head and shoulders above the


multitude of anonymous cars on the roads today. The
characteristic lines reflect our fundamental philos-
ophy-styling must be subordinate to functional de-
m ands. In addition to producing a distinctive personal-
ity, the dynamic design approach behind the Saab 900
is demonstrated by the impressive inner qualities of the
car. The Saab 900 Convertible, the Saab 900 Turbo16S
and the Saab 900 Turbo16 are all powered by the
breathtaking 175 bhp, 16 valve turbocharged engine. In
October 1986, this same Saab engine set 21 inter-
national records, including two world records, at the
Alabama International Motor Speedway in Talladega,
USA. After sprinting at full throttle for 20 days around
the clock, the fastest car covered a distance of 62,000
miles (100,000 km) at an average speed of132.5 mph
(213.299 kmlh). Although beyond the legal reach of the
ordinary motorist, this incredible performance never-
theless proves the inherent stamina of a Saab car.
Saab philosophy - steep ed in
aeronautical engineering.
Before embarking on car production, Saab had already
accumulated many years of aeronautical engineering
experience. So it's not surprising that we also think
along different lines from earth-bound car manufac-
turers. This may explain why we consistently develop
pioneering technical features, such as the turbocharged
car for everyday motoring or the state-of-the-art 16 valve
turbo engine.
Sportiest motoring in a Saab 900.
The Saab 900 Convertible has dazzled true motoring
enthusiasts around the world. The almost legendary
Saab feeling, the surging power of the 16 valve turbo
engine and the sky-high headroom embodied into the
Saab 900 Convertible attracted a growing waiting list
of clamouring buyers long before any of our dealers
had seen anything other than a picture of the car. So if
your heart is set on a Convertible, see your Saab dealer
today, before the waiting list has grown even longer.
If you can do without an open top, the Saab 900 range
has several other sporty alternatives-the Saab 900
Thrbo 16S and the Saab 900 Turbo 16, both powered by
the Saab world-record engine and both with refined
chassis features to match the impressive power
resources. The special feeling of driving a Saab is
difficult to describe. To fmd out for yourself, see your
Saab dealer and give a Saab car its test on the road.

Saab manufactures two series of cars-the Saab 9000


and the Saab 900. The ratings of the engines powering
the different models vary from the 175 bhp developed by
the turbocharged 16 valve engine to the 100 bhp of the
carburettor engine.
Sophisticated
technology under
the sleek shell.
Take a Saab 900 out on
the road and you'll be im-
pressed by its consistent
road behaviour. With its
slight understeer, even at
full load or when acceler-
ating fast, the car re-
sponds predictably at all
times. By providing the
driver with true, distinct
response to every rna·
noeuvre, the Saab 900
also actively increases the
safety margins.
The car owes it reliable
road behaviour to Saab's
time-proven chassis phil-
osophy. The Saab 900 has
front wheel drive, with
most of the weight sup-
ported by the driven front
wheels, which contributes
to good directional sta-
bility and excellent mobi-
lity on snow and on slip-
pery surfaces. Each front
wheel is mounted in
double wishbones-an
extremely reliable design
used in many competition
cars.
Front wheel drive made
it possible to equip the
Saab 900 with a light-
weight, rigid rear axle. So

The movements of the rear axle are

actively contribute to the

Saab cars.

Turbocharger

Turbocharger with intercooler


The engine exhaust gases drive the turbocharger which supplies extra air to the engine. More
fuel can therefore be injected and burned, which increases the peak torque by more than 40%.
When the air is compressed in the turbocharger, its temperature will rise, but it will be cooled
again as it flows through the intercooler, which reduces the thermal stresses on the engine.

A classical four-seater
convertible.

The Saab 900 Convertible


is an open car in the clas-
sical sense-with ample
space for four adults. The
multi-layer top provides
excellent insulation and
folds down into its own
storage compartme nt be-
tween the luggage com·
partment lid and the back
seat. When the top has
been folded down, it is
securely protected by a
three-section cover. The
side windows are electri·
cally operated and can be
opened fully, for a com·
plete sense of being at
one with the world around
you.
If the weather should
suddenly change, you can
raise the top electrically at
the touch of a button and
lock it in position with two
latches at the front. The
top provides the same
protection against the
elements as the roof of
an ordinary saloon. The
rear window is made of
glass, is electrically heat·
ed and may be opened.

Unparalleled driving comfort


The driver's seat is of superb ana-
tomic design and has a wide range
of adjustment facilities. The facia is
curved, so that all controls are easy
to see and reach. The door mirrors
are electrically operated. The lavish
standard equipment includes Cruise
Control for even more relaxed mo·
to ring.
Electrically operated roof
The roof is electrically operated by means of a
switch on the centre console. It takes no more
than a few seconds to raise or lower the roof.
