Saab back to life
According to the materials of some avtoizdany and blogs. My translation, as well as subscription ... please wait until the end!
August 12 was not particularly remarkable day. "So what?" You ask.
It was an important day in the recent history of the automotive industry, because the staff car manufacturer Saab came to work for the first time in the last 2 years. One of the assembly line workers described the happened: "It was great to see again inside the plant!".
In Trollhättan Saab could start doing! According to the news agency dpa, the factory has recruited 332 workers, whose main task - to prepare the plant for re-start of production cars. At this time will produce electric Saab 9-3. Before a single car will be placed for sale, you need to implement a set of planned improvements and changes in the production line.
As we remember, Saab introduced the concept of an experienced SAAB 9-3 ePower at Paris Motor Show in 2010. The model was based on the Saab 2002 MG SportsCombi
So far, industrial hangars 70 km. north of Gothenburg produce spare parts for other models, but the fall will release Saab 9-3, said a spokesman for the Swedish national public electric vehicle (National Electric Vehicle Sweden, NEVS) Johan Andersson.
Sino-Japanese consortium purchased the bankrupt Saab came with the purpose of producing electric cars in the future, only the brand Saab. At the moment, are still ongoing negotiations with subcontractors.
"With about 500 subcontractors, we have already negotiated," says Andersson.
Production of the Saab 9-3 was discontinued two years ago. Now the goal is to develop on the basis of its electric vehicle by 2014. Sources indicate that recycled elektroversiya 9-3 will consist entirely of parts that have nothing to do with the former owner of the brand, General Motors. Given the huge amount of DzhiEmovskih parts used in the original 9-3, their re-planning, production, exchange, negotiations with manufacturers and subcontractors - a very impressive result, which made the new owner of NEVS, especially in a short period of time. NEVS already actively placing orders for new components, so the Swedish firm MCM has received a contract to manufacture parts on the floor a total of 12 million kroons.
It is not known whether the concept introduced 9-3 ePower sample 2010 maturity in the development of a new electric vehicle. But there is information that the old 9-3 very thoroughly developed, both outside and inside. In April, 2013 on the website of Iovinn, Gothenburg Design Bureau, flashed the picture with the image of the updated sketches 9-3. It is noteworthy that Iovinn pay, among others, salaries as well Sindriku Mathias, former chief designer of Saab.
