Wydział samochodowy przeniesiono do Trollhättan.


The site in Trollhättan was transformed to allow construction of cars and those working on project 92 moved from Linköping.
On 27 February it was formally decided that the aeroplane manufacturer Saab will be making cars. On 10 March, a contract was signed with Philipson on distribution and sales. 10 of June the car was shown to the press in the staff canteen at Linköping. Saab 92 have a streamlined, stressed-skin steel body. Thanks to a completely smooth underside the Cx value is no more than 0.32. The engine is a two-cylinder two-stroke, transversely mounted ahead of the front axle.
