There goes Saab’s embargo on the long-awaited 9-4X SUV Concept that should have made its first official appearance at the upcoming Detroit Show this Sunday (January 13). The 9-4X Bio-Power Concept looks like its production ready and if we believe the folks from the Dutch newspaper, Autotelegraaf, the compact SUV will go into production at GM’s plant in Mexico before the end of the year with sales staring on both sides of the Atlantic shortly after.

The all-wheel-drive concept is powered by a 2.0-litre turbocharged 4-cylinder engine that delivers 245 HP and 353 Nm of torque when it uses normal gasoline and 300 Hp and 400 Nm of torque when using E85 bio-ethanol. We’ll have more on Saab’s compact SUV later on this week. -More pics after the jump
