    I'm surprised at how good it still looks today. For a discontinued brand their cars still look relatively new.

    • @redey1290

      Well I imagine it's been pretty well kept, since it is rare and Saab went under not very long after this car was produced.

      GM purchasing them was the worst thing to have happened to them. Same with Ford buying Volvo. The worst Volvos made were the ones during fords ownership, made cheap as hell yet ford was trying to move them as an upmarket company. Although at least ford had the finances to support Volvo. Even though they are owned by a Chinese company now I am glad they are still here and it appears the new owners are letting them do what they like.

      @OSMAN These cars are quite rare to find for sale even here in Sweden. But there are a few out there!

    • @HateIronMaiden
      @HateIronMaiden 5 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      @OSMAN The 9-4X was only sold in the US, so there are more of these in the US than in Sweden. Saab planned to launch it in Europe as well, however it would have remained pretty rare in the whole of Europe, as Saab had ruled out a diesel engine. In Europe, a non-hybrid, gasoline SUV would be almost impossible to sell. Europeans are a lot more concerned with fuel economy than yankees, and CO2-based taxes in many countries would have made the 286 g/km 9-4X almost impossible to sell.

    If Saab were still in business, I imagine the 9-4x being a VERY popular car in North America right now with the SUV boom. The 9-3 Aero XWD 2.8T would always remain one of my favorite cars from the final days.

    Someone in my hometown once drove a white 9-4x around. It was the only one I ever saw on the road. It only struck me years later that it was one of about 250 sold in the US, making it much rarer than many exotic cars.

    I sat in a 9-4X at the dealer while I was getting service. It was an extremely nice vehicle and a great Saab. The final 9-5 was also a stylish, refined vehicle. The brand had a different viewpoint from BMW and Audi. Saabs were built and drove lighter.

    I always loved those Saab 9-4x’s and those Cadillac SRX’s. I always found it very weird Saab was disqualified the year after the 9-4x came out because usually cars last more than one model year. My grand parents go to Florida every I believe it was back in 2013 when they flew there. That year they went to Florida they rented a Cadillac SRX and they really liked it and my Grampy told me all about it.

    Great video! I still remember the day me and my friend went to a Saab dealership to see the 9-4x in 2011. My friends dad worked there so we had access to basically everywhere. We spent the whole day just looking at Saabs, Jaguars, Subarus and so on. I can vividly remember the moment i saw the car. It was a Aero in Ice Pearl, black interior and it had the same wheels as the one in the video. Great memories.

      PitchTrails Nope, they do not. Some cars have slightly updated versions of the system with new or different features, but otherwise it's the same system. In fact, the version in this 9-4x actually looks to have more features than the version in my mom's Verano.

    • @rbeaton16
      @rbeaton16 6 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Kamal Lasenby no one copied anyone. That is a GM wide infotainment system that was used for many years, it is not Saab's creation. In fact this may be the only Saab it ever appeared in.

  • @kolbyknapp962
    @kolbyknapp962 7 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    Saab seemed to have thought of everything while being restricted to a GM platform to make it unique with well thought out features to differ their cars with competing models even on the same platform especially true with the 9-4. I know this lead to their downfall but at the same time they risked that just to differ itself from competitors overall in my opinion this is what made Saab such a great brand.

      @christrahi16 5 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      @@jacobfleming565 Yes, one could argue that they saved them from going down in the 90s, but in my opinion they were a very wrong buyer. Yes they saved saab but they kind of ruined it also. GM was only seeing saab as a potential to make fast money and not the value of it. So they started making saab do cheaper and cheaper csrs with cheaper parts and cost reductions with every year that went. Saab always fought it though and had a whole other picture in their mind. They wanted to do high quality cars that were durable and engineered right which costs money. So with every car they sold it was costing them more money than gm had anticipated. In the end gm gave up as it wasn't making a good profit out of saab and it was one of the big reasons why Saab went bankrupt in 2011.

    I really enjoyed this! There is not nearly enough content on the 9-4x. I can't help but to think what if Saab had still been in business. They experimented with electric vehicles in the early 2000's. I truly believe they could have been competing with Tesla if GM hadn't shut down their electric programs and then the entire company. The new generation 9-5 and the 9-4x with electric drivetrain would have had been great. I personally would want an electric 9-4x

    You could really say the SRX is based on the 9-4x really. They finalized the platform designs and designed them for GM. Even though the SRX came out a year earlier, the prototype 9-4x's predated the SRX.

    Saab would've made a comeback with this SUV. The market for crossovers and suvs in 2014 would've saved the brand. To bad the company couldn't last that long. They could've created a revolutionary car to bring back the brand as well.

      D T Buick is making a ton of money for GM in China. Somehow, Chinese think Buick is a good high end car while other GM brands fail in China.

    • @dt7751
      @dt7751 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Yeah you said it. Only in China. Buick closed it's showrooms in most European countries and the whole middle east and it's not doing so great in the US. Plus it is considered a luxury car in China because of the government taxes. A 2018 Buick costs somewhere around 350-400 thousand dollars in China...

    The 9-4x is the only crossover I'd actually like to have, only because it's Saab and it's rare.

    there is far too much GM influence/parts sharing with this car. its such a shame that they couldn't allow saab to flourish. miss those beautifully unique cars they used to produce. i guess the financial crisis really took its toll.

    • @cpufreak101
      @cpufreak101 7 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      GM was trying to sell off Saab as well, there was just a huge disagreement between GM and the buyer that resulted in the brands demise until NEVS picked up the ashes to make a low volume EV company. cause for the 9-4, if i remember right it went into production during the sale period, but the disagreements were already starting, with GM threatening every day to cancel the production, until they eventually did, leaving Saab to die.

    • @frankmagana1408
      @frankmagana1408 7 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      As there would be. I cant think of any company that owns several other brands that doesnt part share. Hell some are worse like putting 14 year old cruise control stalks found in a 04 economy car into a 85k flagship suv

    @harkin3684 7 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Hi Kyle, it has been a while since I commented on one of your videos. I had asked you if you reccomended Saabs for being reliable/good cars. You said it wasn't the best idea to buy one because of parts availability. I found a compromise and am now the proud owner of a Saab 92x which is a rebadged Subaru Impreza. I really would like to see you review one because your videos have all the technical information that I want to know and answers various questions about different vehicles. I appreciate that you are active on youtube and reply to questions and comments. Keep up the great work.

      Harkin Labs Gaming Congratulations buddy, that’s awesome! If you were close to North Carolina I could film yours! 😁 I’d like to film one of those someday 👍🏻👍🏻

    • @harkin3684
      @harkin3684 7 ปีที่แล้ว

      Saabkyle04 you probably wouldn't want to film mine because it isn't cosmetically in the greatest condition. Anyways good luck finding one to review. I really like strange or oddball cars, so the recent changes to the channel are amazing. Are you planning on doing any more videos with your family's dealership?
