There is rumor around saying Saab decide to downsize its engines for their cars. As reports indicate that the Swedish brand's next 9-5 will get just 1.6-liters of displacement for its base engine.
Although it is just 1.6 liters but the power should still be up to par because it comes with a turbocharger to boost the output. Despite the small-bore engine, the next 9-5 will be built atop the Epsilon II platform which underpins the latest Opel Insignia and which will cause the new 9-5 to grow in size compared to the current car. The 9-3 will move down to the Delta platform, shared with the Chevy Cruze and other mid-size derivatives.
Besides of the 1.6 engine, Saab will get at least one diesel engine along with the 2.8-liter V6 from the GM parts bin. Its Swedish heritage will remain intact thanks to the continued usage of Saab's BioPower engines, which combine high-pressure turbocharging with small, E85-fueled four-cylinder engines and an all-wheel drive system similar to the one just released on the latest 9-3.
