Now, non-Swedish will get our first opportunity to see Saab 9-3 Convertible BioPower Hybrid Concept in reality i.e. if you are living in London and would be attending the London Auto Show next month.



So, those lucky British will be the second nationality to witness in life, the world’s first fossil fuel free hybrid that combines pure bioethanol fuel and electric power for running. The car boasts of zero fossil CO2 exhaust emissions, a fuel-saving stop/start functionality, torque boosting electric power assistance on demand, an electric-only ‘Zero Mode’ for city driving and regenerative braking. It is hold a record for being the world’s first hybrid soft-top and with its automatic transmission, can go zero to 62 mph acceleration in just 6.9 seconds.



Other eco-friendly cars to be displayed by Saab there are, the 9-5 2.3t BioPower will go on sale in the UK and other selected European markets later this year, and the pure bioethanol powered Aero X Concept Car.
