Saab automobile went bankrupt after a lot of back and forth[0], and the estate was bought by NEVS[1], a Chinese owned company. They own the design for the old cars (Saab 9-3 was introduced in 2002), they use the same assembly plant in Sweden, but last I heard Saab AB (the owner of the Saab brand) did not want to license the brand to NEVS[2] again after their reconstruction. So even if they do start car production in the future, they won't be called Saab unless something change. NEVS also recently sold the rights to the 9-3 platform to Turkey [3], because they've had financial problems since the start. I would be very surprised if an electric car of any relevance came out from the old Saab factory any time soon unfortunately.
