This Year's Model Updates:
For 2006, the Saab 9-7X's V8 receives Displacement on Demand technology. Saab says that this feature enables fuel economy gains of up to 5 percent by reducing the number of cylinders engaged in the V8's combustion process. The 9-7X's inline six-cylinder engine has been updated, too; it now produces 290 horsepower, a 15-hp gain. Other changes this year include a standard stability control system, an optional navigation system (which had been promised for the 2005 model, but not delivered) and the ability to order the rear-seat DVD-based entertainment system on models equipped with the moonroof.
Pros:
- Long list of standard luxury features, strong lineup of engines, quality interior materials.
Cons:
- Attempts to disguise its domestic origins not altogether successful, hard to justify price premium over Buick and GMC cousins.
