NEVS Emily GT, the dream project of the brand that parted ways with most of its staff, is on display with its production rights for those who want to buy it.
Just like in the case of MG, the desired momentum could not be achieved for Saab, which entered a new era under the name of NEVS with its acquisition by the China-based company Evergrande Group. Recently, a very important announcement was made for this new formation, where the efforts to bring the 9-3 model back to life electrically did not work. In the light of the developments that we have shared with you in detail, a very large-scale dismissal is put into effect for the brand, where the winds of bankruptcy are blowing. The process, in which Evergrande Group announced that it would gradually lay off almost 90 percent of the workers at the SAAB factory in Sweden, followed the development of the factory to be transferred to Polestar. After this disintegration on the NEVS front, the details of a very interesting project emerged. NEVS Emily GT, which was announced to be developed by Saab engineers for the new period and kept secret, was announced by official channels a few days ago. The decision of the NEVS wing to sell the project, which is impossible to produce on its own front, with intellectual property rights is also on the table.

Emily GT, shared by Peter Daul, who was in the senior engineering team of the brand during the Saab era and is still responsible for development today, stands before us as the proof on the asphalt of a dream that could not be realized. The dynamics planned for the serial production of the car, where we see the power unit of the electric 9-3 in the prototype version, is at a very serious level. Emily GT, which is planned to be powered by a total of four electric motors, one from each wheel, in case of implementation, has a base power claim of 480 horsepower in combination. In the performance package, the numbers rise to eye-catching levels such as 650 horsepower and 2,200 Nm of torque. The car’s best rate of 0-100 is given as 3.2 seconds.

Perhaps one of the most important points about the development process of Emily GT is the assistance of Koenigsegg in the operation. It’s certainly worth noting that Christian von Koenigsegg was one of the people who drove the car during the testing process and that it was exciting even in the early stages. Emily GT, which can support a very high capacity package such as 175 kWh in the battery department, has the potential to be a GT car that can exceed 1,000 kilometers on a single charge. Whether or not Emily GT will be implemented by the developer team, the moves in the coming period will show. The possibility of implementing the production process of the brand in another scenario through investor partnership, just like in Fisker Ocean, remains.
