Car maker Saab Automotive AB was originally owned by "Svenska Aeroplan Aktie(B)olaget" or the Swedish Aeroplane Company (SAAB). SAAB was founded in 1937 to provide planes for the Swedish military. Later, it switched to designing and manufacturing automobiles, founding its car-making division in 1947.
The first Saab was the 92, or "Project 92", went on sale in 1949. Americans, though, would have to wait until the Saab 93 which was the first Saab sold in the U.S. market. Other popular models include the Saab 99 (both aspirated and turbo); the 9000, and the now familiar 9-3. The latter was launched in the U.S. market in 1998. The 9-5, which replaced the 9000, arrived a year earlier.
Despite the popularity and innovations of its vehicles, the company struggled for profitability. In 1990, American automaker General Motors purchased half of Saab Automotive AB. Besides refreshing both the 9-3 and 9-5, Saab introduced its first SUV, the Saab 9-7X, in 2005. The automaker also introduced the Aero-X concept at the 2006 Geneva Motor Show to critical applause.
The 2005 Saab 9-2X, based on the Subaru Impreza, was discontinued in 2006.
