The way of the future…
By Gunnar Heinrich
CALLING all blogs.
GM’s set to announce it’s latest and greatest efforts in developing a relevant march into the uncertain future.
The General will appear armed and ready with product brimming with new potential (we pray) including but not limited to the following:
- A new, smaller Cadillac 3er/C-Class/ A4/ IS fighter called “ATS”.
- Much anticipated by the Sunshine State’s pensioner set – the Cadillac DTS (née Sedan DeVille) successor XTS will also be formally announced
- Buick will showcase a brand new midsize saloon
- And there will be news about the 2011 Chevy Malibu
Lock it here for the press conference with GM CEO Fritz Henderson which will go live at 08:00 EST.

Key To Saab’s Future, The 9-X Biohybrid Returns To Home Away From Home
By Gunnar Heinrich
SAAB public relations man extraordinaire Jan Willem-Vester sent yours (and countless others, no doubt) a press release announcing that Saab is holding a really big party for owners and fans in its home away from home – Massachusetts – us New English really love our Saabs.
If you haven’t read ADL’s Turbo X Drive in Beantown this past Spring, do so here >
Saab’s Stage: Bostonian Spring
The Turbo X Spectacular! The Talk In Herb’s Garden
The Turbo X Spectacular! Part II: Lost (Briefly) In Beantown
The Turbo X Spectacular! Part III: Thrashing Saab’s Best
So from Sonnet to Viggen, every bit of Saab’s past will be on view in the town of Devens from tomorrow August 21st through Sunday, August 24th.
Flying over from Sweden to make this party is the very special – nay, crucial – 9-X Biohybrid concept: a svelte Swede that brings the Scandinavian anti-bling of Bang & Olufsen and must sell like Ikea.
The challenge is whether Saab can keep it real enough for the fans and cheap enough for the accountants. There’s been talk that the someday-production-car is already being downsized (but hopefully not downgraded) from the original show car that debuted last March (see the concept in our video here).
Fuel efficiency is the likely rationale, though flexibility of platform to match future Opels and Chevys is also probable. Which would be fine so long as the production version of the 9-X (aka 9-1X) looks, feels, and smells nothing like them whatsoever.
