The Saab 9-2, occasionally called the Saab 9-1, was a proposed small family car intended for launch by Saab around 2014, as announced in February 2010. The project was planned under the ownership of Spyker Cars, although some industry experts regarded the initiative as overly optimistic.

Development of the 9-2 was believed to be part of a collaboration with another European automotive manufacturer. While detailed design information remains scarce, observers who have viewed the concept describe it as echoing the classic teardrop silhouette of the original 1949–1956 Saab 92, combined with a modern aesthetic featuring a front fascia reminiscent of the contemporary Saab 9-5. According to Saab Managing Director Jan-Åke Jonsson, this model was unlikely to utilize the global GM Gamma platform.

In August 2009, there was speculation that the upcoming compact Saab would draw inspiration from the Saab 9-X Biohybrid concept vehicle unveiled at the 2008 Geneva Motor Show, positioning it to compete within the premium small car segment alongside models like the Mini.
