The Saab Sonett was a series of coupes introduced in 1955. Originally, the Sonett was created as a prototype for a racing series, yet only six examples were made as the program was dropped. These early cars are known as the Sonett I, and served as the inspiration for a sporty looking coupe introduced in 1966 and known as the Sonett II. The Sonett saw a final evolution and update in 1970 with the introduction of the Sonett III, which was built until the end of Sonett production in 1974.
