What is this concept based on? A GM US model like the 9-7X was?

Most likely the envoy or some other small class suv. I absolutelly hate the interiors on new saabs. The plastic dash and the low quality leather that feels like recycled toilet paper. And as if that wasnt enough they have some of the ugliest colour combinations and options for leather. If you want to get a Saab that still has that swedish feel of the old ones you have to get the Turbo-x.

If the interior gets better, that would be a great thing. I am ready for more innovation from Saab, so at least this is a start. The front does seem rather nose-heavy though.

this looks exceptional good, really, but too much like a big Tiguan. You can see that the previous deisgner at Saab was Michael Mauer, today leading the Porsche design-studios.

This looks a lot like it will be based on the same platform the GMC Acadia, Saturn Outlook and Buick Enclave are all based on which is a good thing. They are all excellent vehicles and so far GM has kept them all looking unique. There is supposedly a Chevrolet version coming soon (the Traverse) as well so seeing this does worry me a bit that five vehicles based on the same platform will dilute the rich gene pool so to speak. GM's badge engineering has earned the company a lot of well deserved bad press in the past and it has been looking recently like they had finally learned their lesson. Hopefully this vehicle is truly unique and doesn't end up being more of the same! Time will tell.
