DESCRIPTION:
SONETT III. Our ideas are meant to be driven.
Sonett is SAAB’s exciting new idea in sports cars. It's a superb automobile that’ll keep you out on the road long after other cars bore you. That’s because Sonett is totally unique. It has features that can’t be found together on any other sports car in the world.
Features like front wheel drive. Front wheel drive that pulls you around curves as smoothly as if you were roaring down some straightaway. (And you’re going to do a lot of roaring in this well built Swede.) In all kinds of weather, Sonett’s front wheel drive, with its V-4 engine up front where the power is, gives you the kind of handling and traction, that’ll spoil you for any other car you drive.
And nobody else has Sonett’s dual diagonal braking system. With each circuit connected diagonally to a front and rear wheel, you’ll stop on a
straight line, even if one circuit should happen to fail.
There’s also a lot of great ideas on the outside. Extensive wind tunnel tests have resulted in a design that cuts wind resistance to a minimum. You can knife through wind knowing that the Sonett is incredibly stable at extremely high speeds. And with a drag factor of 0.31, the lowest of any car in its class, you’ll be getting fabulous gas mileage at those speeds.
Any way you look at it, Sonett is one of the toughest cars around. Take, for instance, the fiberglass body that covers the most rigid lightweight chassis on any sports car. Its semi-monocoque steel construction includes roll-over protection bars in the windshield pillars and built-in roll bars behind the seats. When you're barreling along the highway it’s nice to know your car is strong enough to take it. But then what else would you expect from a company that’s
making some of the most advanced jet aircraft today?
But the Sonett III has got a lot of other nice things that are easy to take. Like a 4-speed shift on the floor, molded fiberglas bucket seats, retractable head lights, full instrumentation, and a leather covered steering wheel. And if you want a little more than everyone else, we can give you air conditioning, aluminum wheels, and leather upholstery.
The best idea we had was Sonett’s price. It’s a lot less than you'd expect for a car that has so much going for it. But like all good ideas, Sonett III isn’t mass produced. It’s a limited edition sports car for people who are looking for new ideas.
SAAB. The well-built Suede.
