Saab's badge engineered 9-7X is taking its final bow next year (at last!) after just three years of poor sales. Few of the Saab party faithful were swayed by the 9-7X which was assembled not in Trollhattan, Sweden, but at a GM plant in Moraine, Ohio.

Despicably plain in appearance and woeful in execution, the Saab SUV shared most components with GM's cheaper Chevrolet Trailblazer. The main differences between the Chevy and the Saab lay in a console mounted ignition, an upgraded sports suspension, and some minor aero kit adjustments to exterior sheetmetal.

There's no word as to whether Saab will hazard another 4X4.
