Yes, this is it. The Saab saga is definetly over, there’s no chance of Spyker pulling out like Koenigsegg did. General Motors has completed the transfer of ownership to Spyker, and Saab is officially saved. Congratulations Saab!
The confusing story concerning the Swedish car maker Saab and its future has finally ended today as GM has sold the brand to Spyker Cars. The brand was supposed to be killed by General Motors but as many bidders went and past, one finally triumphed.
Another party besides Spyker has placed a bid on Saab. This is Genii Capital, the same private-equity group which purchased Renault’s Formula 1 team.
As you may already know from other news sources (We never mentioned this, my apologies), Koenigsegg, who planned to buy Saab, pulled out of the deal. The brand’s future was beginning to look bleak.
