Frankfurt: Saab Turbo-X - here it is….

" The Saab Turbo X is a special, limited edition release to mark the debut of Saab’s new XWD system. Sourced from Haldex, this latest generation system is capable of splitting power between front and rear wheels, as well as from side to side at the rear thanks to a new electronic limited slip differential (eLSD).
The system allows for extraordinary roadholding. Saab’s own testing on a slalom course during development showed the system outpacing German and Japanese competition, including a special test against the Porsche 911 Turbo.
The Saab Turbo X is expected to be available for sale early in 2008.

Looks sweet and is a competitor of X.

Sounds remarkably like Quattro except with Haldex instead of the Torsen (Audi uses Haldex on some transaxles). Electronic front and rear diffs usually means open diffs with brake control, which is a bad thing for performance.
