Saab's Suprisingly Slick Phoenix Hybrid

Wired  

Saab floored a lot of people at the Geneva auto show with the Phoenix, a slick gas-electric concept that provides a glimpse of the automaker's future now that Spyker's taken over from General Motors. The futuristic yet accessible car showcases some of the technology we'll see in the next generation of vehicles and some of the styling cues design boss Jason Castriota -- who's done work for Pininfarina, among others -- is bringing to the Swedish automaker. The design looks back even as it looks to the future and suggests we'll see the return of Saab's vintage teardrop shape. It's a 2+2 layout, with heads-up display, ambient lighting and the Android-powered IQon infotainment system we'll see next year in the Saab 9-3.
