The SAAB Factory: How Trollhättan Lost Sweden's Most Loved Car Brand to GM's Boardroom in 14 Years

Saab built some of the most loved, most clever cars on Earth — turbocharged, aircraft-engineered, safe enough to survive a Swedish winter and a moose. So how did Sweden's most beloved brand end up bankrupt on a courthouse floor eleven days before Christmas? This is the full story of Saab: from sixteen aircraft engineers who built a car in 1945, to the legendary 900 Turbo, to the slow death inside General Motors. GM spent twenty years trying to make Saab ordinary — and then, after a rescue finally appeared from China, reached out from Detroit and blocked it. The rise and fall of Saab, and the town that lost everything. #Saab #SaabStory #RiseAndFall #SaabTurbo #ClassicCars #CarHistory #GeneralMotors #Saab900 #Trollhattan #AutomotiveHistory saab, what happened to saab, why gm killed saab, saab story, rise and fall of saab, saab history, saab 900 turbo, saab bankruptcy, saab gm general motors, saab car documentary
