Saab has released another teaser image of their 9-1X Concept which will debut at the Geneva Auto Show next month. The new photo shows that a majority of the car is heavily influenced by Saab’s 9x concept from 2001, while the front appears to follow the design theme shown on the Aero X. Just a few days ago we brought you another teaser image which showed a darkened front view of the new concept.

Based on the Opel Astra platform, the new Saab is expected to be powered by a turbocharged 1.4L engine and will compete with other small premium hatchbacks such as the Volvo C30, BMW 1-series, and Mini Cooper. The new Saab will attempt to broaden the brand’s appeal by expanding their vehicle lineup.
