Saab PhoeniX

Saab PhoeniX is a concept car by Saab unveiled at the 2011 Geneva Motor Show. It was designed by Jason Castriota as one of his first creations for Saab. The design is inspired by the Saab 92001, but with design cues from nearly every Saab model made.  The car uses the same platform as the 2013 Saab 9-3 replacement and much of the design will be carried over from the PhoeniX to the 9-3 replacement and other future Saabs.The front suspension is via HiPer Strut while the rear is a linked H-arm set-up.The car is equipped with the new hybrid all wheel drive systems that is being developed in cooperation with American Axle (AAM). The car is also fitted with the new IQon, an in car information system that runs a customized version of Google Android.

The PhoeniX was awarded the 2011 Auto Express design award with a landslide victory receiving 30% of the votes beating Alfa Romeo 4C (2nd) and Jaguar C-X75 (3rd).The rights to the PhoeniX platform is 100% owned by Saab, but it uses some parts (less than 10%) that are bought from GM.
