Car & Driver Comparison Test

Volvo made a wise decision in offering their latest S60R in AWD, and the new 9-2X will be by far the fastest US production Saab ever!

I wish my 230 hp SVX would over-cook the front-driven wheels during hard acceleration with the fuse in the FWD spot. It would be a nice 'problem' to have.

Agreed, AWD solves the problem, my point is 'cooking' power would be a nice problem to have in an SVX in any drive mode.
