Saab will widen its product line-up with the launch of the 9-5 SportWagon later this yearSaab has enjoyed a prosperous first quarter in 2011 with sales up by nearly three quarters on the same period last year.

During an affluent first few months, the Swedish manufacturer shifted 2,378 units, 1,766 units (74.2%) of those in March alone.

This places as the fastest-growing premium car brand with its share of the premium segment up almost 60 per cent than a year ago.

Charles Toosey, MD of Saab GB, pinned part of its growth on the success of the new 9-5 Saloon: “As Saab Automobile enters its second year of independence, confidence in the brand is returning and we look forward to building on the strong sales momentum across our dealer network.

“As well as the enhanced 9-3 range we have just introduced, our product line-up will be broadened significantly with the launch of the 9-5 SportWagon and 9-4X later this year. We’re confident our sales performance will go from strength to strength.”
