Spyker Cars which acquired Saab back in February plans to double the number of stores selling their sports cars by offering them at the outlets of Saab. This was disclosed by Spyker CEO Victor Muller.
Muller disclosed the plan of signing up the dealerships of Saab during an interview at the headquarters of Saab in Sweden.
Spyker wants to boost their network to 60 stores this year from the 35 that it has at the moment. The build up should hit 90 outlets by the end of 2011 as the Saab brand will pus for the other models like the C8 Aileron that can zoom to 300 kilometers an hour and with a sticker pirce of $214, 990 in the United States.
Saab was able to buy Saab from General Motors after a long stretch effort of the latter to unload the brand. Spyker was able to sell 36 cars in 2009 and the new dealerships will help it bounce back to profitability.
The supercar brand also benefited from the other generic parts like the windshield wipers which it gets from the higher volume Saab orders. Muller also added that it will tap the engineering resources of Saab.
The Spyker CEO is very pleased how the company also benefits from the company it saved.
