Saab – other models registered as light commercial: the collective page of the 95, 96, 900, 9000, 9-3, 9-5 and 9-7X estates, three- to eight-cylinder engines from 44 to 214 kW
This collective page lists Saab passenger cars individually registered commercially as light commercial vehicles, from the two-stroke three-cylinder 95 and 96 estates of the 1960s through the 900 and 9000 to the 9-3, 9-5 and the US-built 9-7X. The 9-7X was developed in a co-operation with General Motors based on the Chevrolet TrailBlazer and was the only Saab model with a V8 engine.

The register lists 36 versions here with 44 to 214 kW from three- to eight-cylinder engines of 841 to 5,328 cm³ displacement. Kerb weights range from 878 to 2,340 kg, gross vehicle weight from 1,367 to 3,500 kg, lengths from 4,300 to 5,450 mm, and widths from 1,450 to 2,410 mm.
As with other estate-car makers, commercial registration as a light commercial vehicle made use of the large tailgate opening and payload of Saab's estates for carrying goods; following the manufacturer's insolvency in 2011/2012 and the end of vehicle production, the vehicle base for such conversions is now historically limited.
Buying used, on the older two-stroke and early four-stroke models check for rust around the wheel arches and floor pan, on the 900 and 9000 check the turbocharger and automatic transmission, and on the 9-7X also check the air suspension and four-wheel-drive system. As Saab is no longer in production, parts supply now relies heavily on specialists and the used-parts market.
