Third Generation
In February 2011, Spyker announced that a new version of the 9-3 would be launched in 2012 as a 2013 model based on the Saab Phoenix platform employed in the Saab PhoeniX concept car.
The car will also feature the new Saab IQon infotainment system as standard. The car will be designed by Jason Castriota. It will be available as a combi coupé/hatchback, convertible and crossover.
Due to Saab's bankruptcy proceedings, the third generation 9-3 has been delayed until Saab's future has been stabilized. The new owner of the Saab estate, National Electric Vehicle Sweden, have stated that they intend to start producing the all-electric 9-3 ePower from 2013.

Famous quotes containing the word generation:
“One of the things that is most striking about the young generation is that they never talk about their own futures, there are no futures for this generation, not any of them and so naturally they never think of them. It is very striking, they do not live in the present they just live, as well as they can, and they do not plan. It is extraordinary that whole populations have no projects for a future, none at all.”
—Gertrude Stein (1874–1946)
“My generation had Doris Day as a role model, then Gloria Steinem—then Princess Diana. We are the most confused generation.”
—Erica Jong (b. 1942)
