The debut of the Saab 9-5 sedan at the South Florida International Auto Show in Miami just heralded the new era for the car manufacturer.

The sleek and sophisticated Saab 9-5 sedan combines fashion-forward Svenska design with advanced technologies and will bring a fresh alternative choice to the premium sedan segment when sales start later in 2010.

The Saab 9-5 sedan pays tribute to its aviation heritage with its dramatic wraparound window graphic while being bold with a frontal styling that was inspired from the award-winning Aero x concept car and a muscular, low-slung stance.

Hailed as the most technically advanced Saab, the 9-5 is aptly equipped with and aircraft-like head-up information display (Pilot HUD); adaptive lighting (Bi-Xenon Smart Beam); Saab DriveSense adaptive chassis with real-time suspension damping control; keyless entry and starting; tri-zone air-conditioning; and Saab XWD with rear eLSD (electronic limited-slip difference).
