About Saab Automobile

and Saab Car Museum

On June 10th 1947 the aircraft manufacturer Saab – Swedish Aeroplanes aktiebolaget – presented its first car, the Saab 92. Series production began in Trollhättan 1949. Until the end of 2011 Saab Automobile produced cars that were happily driven all over the world. At Saab Car Museum you can experience the complete story, from the first prototype to the last car ever built.

The Saab Car Museum today

Until December 2011 the museum was owned by Saab Automobile AB. Because of the bankruptcy in 2011 the museum and its collections entered a time of uncertainty. After intense effort and the completion of the bidding process, the following constellation placed the winning bid: the City of Trollhättan, Saabgroup and the Marcus and Amalia Wallenberg memorial foundation. Today, the museum is owned by the City of Trollhättan and Saab AB, and is run by Innovatum Science Center AB.

Saab Car Museum är en del av

Hållbarhet för Saab Car Museum handlar om att agera ansvarsfullt och långsiktigt. Museet är en samlingsplats för fordonsentusiaster världen över och social hållbarhet är en kärna i alla dessa kontakter, i synnerhet i relation till de många ideella aktörer museet samverkar med. Museet visar bilar och företaget från svunna tider men är också en mötesplats för aktörer som arbetar med omställningen av fordonsindustrin i Västra Götaland, vilket är en del av arvet efter Saab.

De viktigaste hållbarhetsfrågorna, som är vägledande för prioriteringar och målsättningar är:

Stolthet, arbetsglädje, service och jämlikt bemötande.
Resurs- och klimateffektivitet när vi bedriver och utvecklar verksamheten.
Stärka social hållbarhet, speciellt i samverkan med ideella aktörer.
Upprätthållande av Saabrelaterad kunskap för framtiden.
