According to Swedish Dagens Industri, Saab is in talks with Chinese Great Wall Motor Company. Great Wall Motor Company is listed on the Hong Kong Stock exchange and is best know for producing SUV's mainly for the Chinese market.
At the same time the Wall Street Journal reports that according to Dow Jones Newswire, Saab is in funding talks with three different Chinese companies, which are Great Wall Motor Company, China Youngman Automobile Group and Jiangsu Yueda Group.

Bloomberg now has more information about the talks with Chinese companies. According to Bloomberg's sources, the negotiations with all three companies are progressing and a deal with one of the Chinese manufacturers should soon be finalized. The agreement could include an investment in Saab and a joint venture to build Saab cars in China.
According to Forexyard, a source has said that the negotiations are very far advanced and should produce results over the weekend. Victor Muller declined to comment on the three named companies, but said: "We are hopeful that these discussions will result in a solution very shortly so we can resume production."
A blog fueled by enthusiasm about Saab, the greatest car company between the North and the South Pole. And their cars, which probably is the only cars that would start on a cold and crispy South Pole morning.
