The Saab 96 from 1964 belongs to the last, perhaps best version of the Swede with a two-stroke engine and proves how convincingly a supposedly "simple" engine concept could be combined with high quality.
What exactly makes the Saab 93 a "girl" remains an open question. Perhaps its well-rounded shape. But the heart beating in the two-stroke is definitely a German one: it comes from the drawing board of former DKW engineer Hans Müller. This historical test report explains what an admirer can expect when dancing with the Swedish girl.
