The new Saab 9-3 Convertible is a phenomenally exciting drive. The powerful engine begs to be taken for a run – be it opened up on long country roads or weaving effortlessly through city traffic. And because the car is built around the driver, it exudes responsiveness, control and power; it is truly the complete driving experience.

	Fully automatic soft top Just press a button and the top folds up, latches to the windscreen and the boot is expanded. The entire operation takes only about 20 seconds. All-weather, all-season insulated. Heated glass rear window.
	DynaCage A roll-over protection system by means of the heavily reinforced windscreen frame and the active pop-up bars hidden immediately behind the rear head restraints. The pop-up bars – and the belt pre-tensioners – are activated when the system's sensors detect a risk of rolling over, and also in severe impacts from the front or side.
	Colour-matched hood interior The inside of the top is bright and colour-matched to the upholstery, in either Parchment or Slate Grey.
	CargoSET- self expanding trunk A function that automatically expands the luggage capacity as you raise the soft-top. The space occupied by the folded soft-top becomes available for luggage, providing a total of 380 litres.
	Traction control system (TCS) Enhances driving stability by distributing drive force to the wheel with the best grip. You thus get better traction when you accelerate on a slippery surface or when driving on patchy ice.
	Profiler (Personal Settings) Allows you to customise your car's settings from the comfort of your seat. Adapts functions such as the climate system, rain sensor, parking assistance, anti-theft alarm, parking heater and clock/alarm so they work the way you prefer. Simply rotate and press a single control to select from a menu.
	Saab Active Head Restraints (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.
	Driver's airbag 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
