We recently heard news about Koenigsegg and Saab reaching a deal for new ownership, where General Motors said that this would be okay.

“The sale, expected to close by the end of the third quarter of this year, includes an expected $600 million funding commitment from the European Investment Bank (EIB) guaranteed by the Swedish government,” GM said when it confirmed Koenigsegg as the new owner.

The latest on this story now states that the Industry Minister Maud Olofsson said that he government has no idea on how much Koenigsegg would like to invest into the Saab brand.

“We still don’t have any information about the amount of money they are willing to invest. And that is a key point. The other is the ability to lead the company,” Olofsson said.

The only thing that we have heard from Koenigsegg is that they would like to bring back the Quant EV and also give Saab its soul back.
