The elegant new 9x20" forged wheel is impressive not only by virtue of its attractive design, but also thanks to its exceptionally low weight.

For very large wheels, the often used low pressure casting production method becomes inefficient, and the wheels become heavy. The solution is forged wheels, ideally forged in one piece. The new Hirsch Performance wheel in 9.0x20" weighs only 11 kgs, while dimensioned for a very high strength. When driving, you will notice the excellent balance and low weight that ensure a smooth, comfortable ride. The Liquid Titanium colour gives the wheel an elegant appearance that harmonizes perfectly with the design of the new Saab 9-5.

The new Hirsch Performance forged wheel; a masterpiece at an attractive price.

180HP Performance upgrade for the Saab 9-5 2.0 TiD with automatic and manual transmission.

The enormous development and testing effort invested by Hirsch Performance in diesel engine calibration is delivering results.

The high torque of 400Nm is available from remarkably low rpm's. The harmonius power delivery and wide rpm band provide larger reserves when overtaking and markedly improved performance for the 2.0TiD with variable geometry turbocharger. The fuel consumption remains very low, and the emissions are Euro 5 - certified.

Extensive testing in test benches and on the road ensure the high quality and durability that is expected of a Hirsch Performance product.

Available from Q1 2011.

The proven performance upgrade from 180hp to 200hp for the 9-3 TTiD is now also available for Euro5 model year 2011 cars.

New for this year is also the upgrade from 160hp to 200hp and from 130hp to 170hp, which will follow shortly.

The 200hp performance upgrade generates an immense torque of 430 Nm already at very low rpm's for a relaxed driving experience, and the power delivery is exceptionally smooth, completely masking the transition between the two turbochargers.

As a result, the car becomes much more dynamic to drive, while at the same time achieveing the best fuel economy ever recorded by Hirsch Performance; from 4.7l/100km. The performance upgrades are Euro 5 - compliant.
