Saab Aero-X

The Saab Aero-X is a concept car built by Saab and unveiled at the 2006 Salon International de l'Auto. It is powered by a 2.8 liter twin turbocharged V6 running on pure ethanol that produces 298 kilowatts, or 400 horsepower. The 0 to 100 kilometers per hour time was predicted to be 4.9 seconds and the top speed 255 kilometers per hour. It has a seven-speed manual transmission controlled by paddles on the steering wheel and, like the later Saab Turbo X, four-wheel drive. The doors and windscreen are connected into a single canopy rather than conventional doors.
