What does a Saab 9-7X Trailblazer look like?
Unsurprisingly, the rest of the “TrollBlazer” (referring to the Trollhättan factory where the 9-7x isn’t built) looks like a TrailBlazer pimped-out with 18” alloy wheels. Oh, and blackened ground effects trim designed to foster the illusion of gen-u-ine SUV ground clearance.
When did the Saab 9-7X come out?
This 2005 Saab 9-7x represents GM’s stop-gap measure to get their Swedish brand on the SUV gravy train, which it should be noted, had pretty much already left the station by ’05 and had taken most of its gravy with it. The 9-7x is based on GM’s GMT360 platform which also underpinned the Chevy TrailBlazer, GMC Envoy, and Oldsmobile Bravada.
What kind of suspension does a Saab have?
Saab’s suspension tweaks are the brandgineers greatest contribution to the GMT360 platform. The loosy-goosy base TrailBlazer flops though bumps and corners like Michael Richards handles hecklers. (That is to say, dangerously.)
Which is more expensive a corvette or a Saab 9-7X?
The Saab 9-7x is about $5k more than a similarly equipped Chevy TrailBlazer and roughly $2k more than a similarly-equipped Corvette-powered TrailBlazer SS. I suppose most TTAC readers who voted the 9-7x into the TWAT Hall of Shame never set butt in Saab’s SUV. Its inclusion was a vote against badge engineering and brand mismanagement.

What’s the price of a Saab 9-7X SUV?
If nothing else, the price isn’t right. The Saab 9-7x is about $5k more than a similarly equipped Chevy TrailBlazer and roughly $2k more than a similarly-equipped Corvette-powered TrailBlazer SS.

What kind of interior does a Saab have?
Despite deploying equally unconvincing ersatz wood and sharing many of its dials and buttons with its platform partners, the Saab SUV’s interior achieves an elegance denied its sisters under the skin. In quintessentially quirky Saab fashion, a small, fragile cupholder flips out from the dash at the push of a button.
