Road Test
Saab 9-3 (02-) 2.0t Vector 4dr Saloon
Test date 18 September 2002
Price as tested £23,205
The new 9-3 is Saab’s biggest-selling model and must compete in one of the toughest, fastest-growing market sectors.
Owner GM wants the car to be closer to the sports saloon norm without sacrificing too much of the individualism prized by loyal buyers and which gives new recruits a reason to pick it over a 3-series or a C-Class.
The new 9-3 must be both distinctive and conformist, and offer all the quality, dynamism and image buyers in this class expect.
