The Saab 60 was a special, a limited edition modification of the 1962 Saab 96 peculiar to the UK, with modifications carried out at Saab (GB) Ltd in Slough. In honour of the successes of Erik Carlsson and his Saab 96 two-stroke in the RAC Rally and Monte Carlo Rally, and in view of high demand in the UK for a sport model that was not yet available in right-hand drive, the UK importers created a special series of approximately 56 modified Saab 96 cars between June 1962 and April 1963. The standard 45 horsepower engine was increased to 60 horsepower.
