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.
Fitted with a handle on the dash that,, put the car into a freewheeling type mode to coast downhill .A restyled rear end followed the line of the door window (instead of the sedan's familiar look).
the rear fenders formed with Twin round tail lamp pairs were mounted one over the other with the license plate between its overriders.
The 95 wagon could carry as many as seven people. Initial Type 95 wagons retained the rear-hinged doors of the 93B then switched to front-hinged doors as on the 93F. Both rear seats fold to create a long cargo area, or be used even as a bed.. Tires now larger to 5.60x15 size, and the gas tank had a larger capacity.
