Giving the driver optimum handling, stability and grip in all driving conditions, the Limited Edition Saab Turbo X is equipped with the XWD (cross wheel drive) system. This intelligent active all-wheel-drive system continuously distributes torque from the award-winning 2.8-litre turbocharged V6 engine between the front and rear axles and also between the rear wheels.
To optimise traction at take-off, Saab XWD incorporates an innovative pre-emptive engagement of the rear wheels. Unlike conventional all-wheel-drive systems, this eliminates the need to detect front wheel slip before rear drive is activated, contributing to a system which Saab believes sets a new benchmark in all-wheel-drive performance.
Offering sure-footed handling in low-grip conditions, Turbo X also boasts the addition of an active rear limited-slip differential (eLSD) as standard. The eLSD can transfer up to 50 per cent of maximum rear torque between the rear wheels, to whichever has more grip.
In addition to tuning suspension, electronic chassis, throttle and powertrain settings, Turbo X features distinctive styling additions that enhance its aerodynamic performance.
Saab Turbo X extends the bold, progressive design themes of the new 9-3 range. Offered only in metallic jet black, with the front grille and all exterior detailing accented in a matte grey titanium-like finish, it represents a contemporary expression of its illustrious Black 900 Turbo ancestor.
