The Saab 95 is a seven-seater, two-door station wagon  The station wagon version 95 (and 95 B) ran parallel to the 96 at the Saab headquarters Trollhättan .which was produced by Saab from 1959 to 1978.

Based on the Saab 93 sedan,followed closely that of the Saab 96 after the 93 production ended.  Saab's two-door station wagon was introduced in June 1959, with a larger three-cylinder engine but still two-stroke. Bore was increased from 66 to 70 mm, but stroke retrained the same size. The new engine had a 12-bolt head, versus eight bolts for the smaller three-cylinder version, to solve the previous problem of blown head gaskets It had a four-speed manual transmission. Only 40 were made in 1959.
