Swedish Automobile is hoping to secure investment
Its owner Swedish Automobile said the move was "to secure short-term stability while simultaneously³ attracting additional funding".

Saab had to stop production in April when its suppliers stopped deliveries after not being paid. Its workers have also had their pay delayed for three months in a row.

Swedish Automobile is continuing its efforts to sell minority stakes.

It said it now intended to present a reorganisation plan to creditors⁴ within three weeks of filing it at a Swedish court.

The firm added that it was confident it would get their support.

Delayed deals

Before the summer, Swedish Automobile announced that two Chinese firms would buy minority stakes in the company.

However, these deals have not yet had regulatory approval in Sweden.

Under the agreements, Zhejian Youngman Lotus Automobile plans to pay 136m euros ($191m; £120m) for a 29.9% stake, while Pang⁵ Da Automobile will pay 109m euros for 24%.

Swedish Automobile, formerly⁶ called Spyker, bought Saab from US giant General Motors in January 2010.
