    We

    d like you to test drive our car last.
    Durability.
    You could compare Volvo's durable construction, for example, to our roll-cage construction because both have a unitized steel body of more than 4,000 welds, six strong steel posts and door impact panels.
    Luxury.
    You could compare the interior of an Audi to the spacious interior of a Saab. And you could compare Audi's standard luxury features to Saab's nylon-velour reclining front bucket-seats, Saab's heated drivers seat, folddown rear seat, and tinted windows.
    Economy.
    You could compare the economy of the Dasher (23 miles per gallon in city driving according to EPA tests) to our 21 miles per gallon in the city (according to the same EPA tests.)*
    Performance.
    You could compare BMW's exciting performance features to our rack-and-pinion steering, power-assisted four wheel disc brakes and fuel-injected 2 liter engine.
    Ride.
    You could compare Peugeot's smooth, comfortable ride to ours. A ride that's incredibly smooth and quiet because of our pivot-spring front suspension and a light axle rear suspension that's so responsive, it helps to smooth out even the roughest roads.
    Quality.
    And you could compare such extra-quality features as four-wheel disc-brakes on Mercedes-Benz with the same features on Saab. Because both Mercedes-Benz and Saab are known for their dedication to precision engineering and automotive research and development. Dedication that has made us both technical leaders in the automotive industry.
    Of course, every Saab showroom can't have all these cars. But you can walk into any Saab showroom and find durability, luxury, economy, performance, comfort and quality.
    In every Saab you see. From ,648 to ,528.P.O.E.
    SAAB - It's what a car should be.
    Why you should consider a Saab if you’re looking at a Volvo.
    There are only two cars built in Sweden. Saab and Volvo. Both were initially designed and engineered to satisfy the particularly difficult driving conditions found in Scandinavia. And both have a reputation for being strong, durable and safe automobiles.
    But there are a number of differences between the two which we feel makes the Saab a more sensible purchase decision.
    1. Our shape.
    At Saab, we've always felt that form should follow function. So we developed the shape of the Saab 99 with the help of
    numerous wind tunnel tests. We know that aerodynamic testing and styling can do three important things for a car:
    a.
    Improve gas mileage, since the engine doesn't have to work as hard.
    b.
    Lower wind noise.
    c.
    Give excellent stability in crosswinds.
    Now styling is a very subjective judgment, but
    we feel that the way our car looks, helps the way it works. And that in itself is very beautiful, indeed.
    2. Smaller outside. More room inside.
    The table below compares the general dimensions of the Saab 99 and Volvo 142. As you can see, Saab is considerably smaller on the outside than the Volvo. But on the inside, there are some surprises.

    Trunkspace (by volume)
    23.2 cu. ft.
    a.
    The Saab has more headroom front and rear than the Volvo.
    b.
    The Saab has a little more trunk space than the Volvo. (And that's even before you fold down the rear seat on Saab and find a little station wagon in back. A feature that Volvo doesn't have.)
    We think that once you sit in both a Saab and a Volvo you'll note that in the other critical measurements Saab is about the same as Volvo.
    3.
    Front-wheel drive.
    A lot of people may not care whether it's the front wheels or the rear wheels of their car that move them. But we at Saab believe there is a very big difference. That's one reason that every car we've built has had front-wheel drive. Besides the fact that front-wheel drive is predicted to be on all cars in the future, we adhere to the front-wheel drive principle because we feel it's a safer system for the average driver because you're less apt to skid and it gives
    you better directional stability. We also think that it gives you a sports-car feel of the road. And that the increased traction you get by putting the engine weight over the drive wheels is a big advantage on wet and slippery pavements.
    4.
    Rack and pinion steering, overhead cam, etc.
    In engineering the Saab, we have used a number
    of techniques that you won't find in Volvo.
    Like our rack and pinion steering. Rack and pinion steering is the type of steering found on most famous race cars. Drivers prefer it because it gives them a better feel of the road and a more direct response.
    Saab also has an overhead camshaft on its 2 liter fuel-injected engine.
    The reason? More efficient design.
    Saab has a number of other features too, as does Volvo. Both have 4 wheel disc brakes,
    4-speed manual transmissions (3-speed automatic optional), 15 inch wheels and radial tires standard.
    Both even have electrically heated driver seats. (But we had it two years before Volvo.)
    5.
    As many dealers as Volvo.
    There's no question about who has sold more cars in the U.S. up until now. Volvo is ahead. And that tends to make a lot of people think that Saab just didn't have the sales and service facilities necessary to handle a large volume of cars.
    But Saab has more than 450 dealers nationwide. As many as Volvo. More than Audi. And more than any other car in our class.
    To find the dealer nearest you, check the yellow pages.
    6.
    Price.
    Often the first—and final—decision on a new car is based on price. Saab and Volvo are competitively priced. The P.O.E. price of the Saab 99LE two door with manual transmission, radial ply tires, and all other standard equipment is 98. The comparable model for Volvo is the 142 at 60.
    7.
    The test drive is the test.
    The real difference between two cars cannot be adequately judged until you have driven both cars. That's why we think everyone looking at a Volvo is not being fair to themselves until they also test drive a Saab.
    We think the fun of driving that you experience in a Saab will convince you that comfortable, safe, dependable, practical, economical transportation doesn't have to be dull.
    No matter what other car you may be considering, we think once you test drive a Saab you'll be convinced to buy one.
