Photos: Saab 9-X Air concept

Saab developed this new convertible concept in conjunction with its BioPower concept, using the same powertrain optimized to run on E85, or 85 percent ethanol fuel. It also gets a newer version of GM's belt-alternator hybrid system, a mild hybrid system that uses a lithium ion battery pack and electric motor to provide extra boost and stop the engine while idling.
