The 1967 Saab 96 were powered by an inline, two-stroke three-cylinder engine that offered 46 horsepower. Another engine was available, an overhead-valve four-stroke V-4, 1498cc unit that produced 73 horsepower.
Along with Saabs return to the four-cycle V-4 engine, seat upholstery also switched from hessian-type cloth inserts to close-weave nylon. All V-4 Saabs had disc brakes in the front and an alternator. The two-stroke models had drum brakes and a DC generator, plus vinyl upholstery.
The two-door, five passenger, front engine, front-wheel drive sedan sold for $1,800 - $2,300 (depending on engine and options).

The Saab 96 was produced for twenty years, beginning in 1960 and lasting until 1980. It was based on the Saab 92 chassis and was originally powered by a 38 horsepower three-cylinder two-stroke engine. Later it was increased to an 850cc unit that produced 40 horsepower. In 1967 the car was offered with a four-stroke Ford 1498cc V4 engine borrowed from the Ford Taunus. It produced 65 horsepower which was enough to send the car from zero-to-sixty in about 15 - 16 seconds.
A three-speed manual gearbox was first used but later replaced with a four-speed gearbox.
Erik Carlsson drove a Saab 96 to much international success in rally events. He finished first in the 1960, 1961, and 1962 RAC Rallies and an impressive first in the 1962 and 1963 Monte Carlo Rallies.
