: Some features may be either standard or optional depending on the chosen engine.

		Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) Allows you to brake firmly without impairing steering ability.
	close

		Bi-xenon headlamps with automatic levelling Bi-xenon headlamps give a broader low beam and better kerbside visibility. Brightness is much closer to daylight levels than normal halogen lamps. For high beam, the bi-xenon lamps are supplemented with halogen lights that give a long and broad throw. Beam length is adjusted automatically to maximise capacity and to reduce the risk of blinding oncoming traffic. On EU markets the bi-xenon lights comes with headlamp washers as standard.

		Cornering Brake Control Increases braking capacity and reduce tendencies to pull to one side when you turn and brake simultaneously. Experience Cornering Brake Control interactively
	close

		Driver's airbag, adaptive Adaptive dual-stage airbag. Sensors register the crash force and whether the belt is being used. The system adjusts airbag deployment to suit, either to the maximum or with lower pressure. Interacts with the front seatbelts for added protection. Experience Driver's airbag, adaptive interactively
	close

		EBD Electronic Brake-force Distribution Distributes brake force between the front and rear wheels depending on how the car is loaded. Cuts stopping distance, particularly when carrying heavy loads. Experience EBD Electronic Brake-force Distribution interactively
	close

		Electronic key with remote control The electronic key is not just simply a key. In addition to the usual comfort functions such as locking and unlocking all the doors and boot lid by pressing a button, it also works as a theft deterrent and personal security support. Experience Electronic key with remote control interactively
	close

		Electronic steering column lock An electronic steering wheel lock that will not unlock until the car's correct electronic key is inserted in the ignition.
	close

		Emergency Brake Assist Amplifies the braking force if you press the brake pedal quickly. Helps maximise the potential of the brakes in situations that require firm braking.
	close

		Front passenger's airbag, adaptive Adaptive dual-stage airbag. Sensors register the crash force and whether the belt is being used. The system adjusts airbag deployment to suit, either to the maximum or with lower pressure. Interacts with the front seatbelts for added protection.
	close

		Front seat side airbags The front seats have side airbags to add protection for the occupants' torso.
	close

		Immobolizer The engine only responds to the correct digital code in the electronic key. Rolling codes make it virtually impossible for an unauthorised person to copy the key code.
	close

		Roof rail airbag The roof rail airbag is a side impact protections system. It is inflated from above the B-post area and help protect the head for the front and rear occupants. Experience Roof rail airbag interactively
	close

		Saab Active Head Restraint (SAHR 2), front The front seats feature the second generation Saab Active Head Restraints (SAHR 2). A study* of actual rear-end collisions on public roads shows that the first generation SAHR gave a remarkable 75 per cent reduction in serious neck injuries. SAHR 2 has an improved activation mechanism in low-speed rear-end impacts. *) Published in: The Journal of TRAUMA(r), Volume 51, No 5, November 2001.

		Saab Anti-theft Protection alarm (ATA 3) The Saab Anti-Theft Protection Alarm reacts if someone tries to enter the car. There is also a movement sensor that activates the alarm if somebody breaks a window and tries to reach something in the car. A tilt sensor responds if someone tries to steal the wheels or tow away the car.
	close

		Tyre pressure monitoring system Tyre pressure is monitored via a sensor in each wheel. If the pressure is too low, a warning is shown on the Saab Information display.
