The tendency is as you'd expect. Towards understeer, but the car shod on 16ins alloys and lower profile Michelins, remains stable and passive, until really pushed. Inside the car is a delight. Extremely quiet at high speed, aided by a low CD figure, and very comfortable. The seats are electrically adjustable and a pleasure over long runs.
Controls fall easily to hand and are well spaced and easy to use.
The AC is excellent and once set doesn't have to be touched again. One of the best innovative features is the night panel. This turns off all ancillary dials and lights apart from the speedo. But when the fuel gets low, the gauge automatically lights up to warn you. Overall the Saab 95 is a strong contender in this fearcly competitive sector, which Volvo likes to call it's own.
