Going back to my Saab days, I really like hatchbacks 😁. Don't know much about this car but I'm intrigued!

G86 M4 you mean? Not happening before LCI (7/24) for sure, and highly unlikely period.

The 523hp i4 model (whether it's called i4 M, i4 M50, or some other name) will be the flagship of the G26 lineup.

Ok, thank you. M4 GC would be (or would have been I guess) epic.

Always loved SAAB styling and those useful hatchbacks. I had a poor man's SAAB in 2008 when I bought a 2001 Hyundai Elantra GT manual . Loved that car!

Looks promising, silhouette looks good. Wonder if it will have the oversized grille as in the G22?

Amazed at people already trying to rain on this parade.

Bring on the utility-focused EV's!

My thoughts exactly. Fingers crossed they’ve given it a properly proportioned grill.

For car sakes it supposed to complete with Tesla s and porche!

40 kWh delivered and charged 60%.

Presume it didn't start charging completely depleted. Estimated total battery capacity between 80 and 100 kWh?

40 kWh in 30 minutes is not terribly fast. But 4 cars are charging at the same time. It will probably be able to do better.

Isn't it competing with a model 3 for price and size? The Taycan is on another price level and is much bigger. Model S is also bigger but can't compete with the finish of Porsche and BMW.

I think I see a Hyundai Ioniq and a Tesla model 3

And a Mercedes? A Mini?
