BAIC of China, who recently employed the services of famous actor Nicolas Cage to promote one of their cars, has shown the first teaser photos for their latest design showcase, called Concept 900, a vehicle which is set to debut at the 2013 Shanghai motor show this weekend. The shots may not be particularly revealing, but it shows potential, which shouldn’t be just skin-deep. Why?
Because the automaker has a lot of old Saab bits lying around in its factory (figuratively, of course), and they’ve been making a bunch of old 9-5-based sedans for a few years now, all of which are big and their proportions betray their Swedish connection, with long, low bodies and simple lines. Regarding the Concept 900, they have not released any specific data on it.
At least this way Saab lives on, albeit in a reincarnated-Asian-Frankenstein kind of way, and like all the tried and tested products we know, love and buy, it ended up being made in China.
