2005 Saab 9-7X Review Summary

What reviewers liked most about the 2005 Saab 9-7X:

• ... the 9-7X comes standard with all the latest amenities including heated leather seats, automatic climate control, a driver information computer, wood accents and the OnStar satellite communications system.- Edmunds.com

• [Compared to the Trailblazer] the 9-7X has a Euro-style look inside and out, while the all-wheel-drive truck platform has been tuned to the pavement with better body control, a lower ride height, and quicker, more linear steering.- Automobile

• Inside, the 9-7X wears handsome dark leather with contrasting stitching, wood dash inserts, and the sideways, flippy-outy Saab cupholder. It's a nicely detailed treatment, with typically Saab shapes.- The Car Connection

What reviewers liked least about the 2005 Saab 9-7X:

2005 Saab 9-7X Comparisons:

• ...hard to justify price premium over Buick and GMC cousins...- Edmunds.com
