Saab cars are frequently ranked among the best in the world in various safety surveys. Yet our safety work is much more than award-winning. It focuses on what actually happens on the road in real-life conditions. After all, our job is to protect real people, not just dummies in a laboratory. This philosophy has led to a range of safety innovations over the years. The most important result of all, however, is the impressive safety of our cars. Out on the road.
