General Motors' further global integration could include a new entry-level vehicle for Europe - built in Europe by Saab. The Financial Times reports that Cadillac is considering a plan to build a car off the architecture that has spawned the Saab 9-3, and is also considering the possibility of building the vehicle at Saab's underutilized plant in Sweden. A decision could come in a few months, the paper says. Meanwhile, the FT also says Saab is studying a new lineup-topping model called the 9-6 to be derived from the new GM rear-/all-wheel-drive architecture. That vehicle would be shared with Opel in Europe and would be based on a design from GM's Aussie Holden brand. Saab is introducing the 9-2X, spun from the Subaru WRX, and the 9-7X, derived from the Chevy TrailBlazer platform, this year.
