SOME SAABS HAVE THEIR FEET ON THE GROUND… OTHERS ARE FLIGHTY.
Did you know that most members of the SAAB family are airborne — jets, trainers, missiles? The SAAB best known to Americans, however, is the sturdy, stylish sedan with the amazing competition record. It too was born and developed in the laboratories of Svenska Aeroplan AB, Sweden’s dynamic aircraft manufacturer.
When SAAB entered the automotive field, it tapped the vast fund of engineering genius in its employ. The car reflects this fresh, uninhibited approach. Aircraft concepts developed during the last quarter century were adapted to road travel and incorporated in the new automobile. That’s why the SAAB is a decade ahead of other cars in passenger safety, efficient aerodynamic design and sure roadability. Get the facts on SAAB... get the feel of a SAAB… drive a SAAB today!
What “Car and Driver" Says About SAAB:
(From Feb. 1961 road test:) “perfect examples of good basic designs .that have received much thoughtful engineering over, a long period of time."
SAAB... GETS YOU THERE WITHOUT A CARE!
A letter to the motoring public about a remarkable new car designed for Americans by Sweden’s leading builder of jet aircraft.
Dear Motorist:
Four years ago, SAAB of Sweden introduced the Saab automobile in the United States. Built by one of Europe’s leading producers of jet aircraft, the Saab presented an entirely new automotive concept to American motorists. But it was a concept that had already been proved over hundreds of millions of miles throughout Europe. Americans took to the Saab with enthusiasm. Here was a car that combined beauty, economy, safety and comfort with the precision craftsmanship of aircraft engineering. Most notable of Saab’s many unique features is its front wheel drive, developed and perfected more than ten years ago. By combining the engine, gear box and differential in a compact front-end power pack, Saab offers exceptional traction, maneuverability and ease of handling — even in mud, snow and sand.
Another significant feature is Saab’s highly efficient dual-stroke engine. With no valves, no cams, no tappets; the engine has only seven basic moving parts. Three cylinders do the work of six — with the same smooth power flow. Saab owners often travel more than 100,000 miles without an engine overhaul. Saab is a beautiful car. But its sleek body lines are as functional as they are handsome. The design was actually developed in a wind tunnel to minimize wind resistance and air drag. As a result, Saab’s ride is amazingly smooth, quiet and stable — even at high speeds. Another advantage of the car’s aerodynamic design is remarkable fuel economy which averages 33-38 miles per gallon.
An authoritative automotive magazine recently referred to Saab as the “safest small car in the world.” Here again Saab’s aircraft experience was of prime importance, for the car was actually subjected to stress tests in much the same maimer as airplane construction is tested. Saab’s body shell is an armored fuselage of heavy gauge steel, welded and reinforced for tremendous strength and solidity.
Saab is unique among cars. Its compact exterior dimensions belie its interior spaciousness. Compared with other imported cars Saab offers more leg room, more head room and much more luggage space for greater driving comfort. The special convertible seating transforms the car at will into a utility wagon for big loads or a camping unit to sleep two. Although it consistently wins sports car rallies and competitions— often against larger, more powerful cars — Saab is very much a family car. It is nimble in traffic, easy to park.
Under Saab’s sound marketing policy, fine dealer service is assured through regional depots with complete supplies of spare parts promptly available. Furthermore, all Saab parts are in standard American S.A.E. tool sizes. Any service man can work on a Saab.
In the four years Saab has been in the United States, we have made over 30 improvements in comfort and performance to meet American preferences. Yet there have been no changes in Saab’s basic and proven design. Unlike many domestic cars which undergo yearly changes for change sake only, Saab retains its smartness and value for years. We do not build in obsolescence; we build in quality.
We firmly believe the 1961 SAAB 5-seater Sports Sedan and 7-pass. Station Wagon to be the finest automobiles ever produced for the money. They incorporate many important advancements — at no increase in price.
May I suggest you visit your nearest Saab dealer and let him show you the unusual features of this remarkable automobile. Then test-drive and compare the ’61 SAAB for yourself!
