Introduced in 1959, the first SAAB wagon was a response to Volvo's success with it's Duet. The 95 was announced in May of 1959, but production didn't start until that fall. The 95 used the new 841cc motor and 4-speed transmission before the sedan - the sedan didn't get this combination until the introduction of the 96 in 1960. The suicide-doors and facia came from the Saab 93. The 95 kept the 3 cylinder 2-stroke motor from 1959 until 1967. The V4 model was introduced in 1967, so both motor options were available that year. The first 95's did not have the rear spoiler to keep the window clean, but simply had a lip that acted as a sun-shade. In 1967, the doors were changed to front-hinged, but the spoiler was still just a lip - the spoiler was added in 1969.

The 95 is still remarkable for it's seven passenger capacity [a small rear-facing seat in the trunk, which folded out of the way when not in use] and 500kg loadcarrying capacity. The 95 was also available in parts of Scandinavia as a two-door model with a flat-bottomed rear compartment, for use as a delivery vehicle. Saab legend Erik Carlsson took his 95 to 4th place in the 1961 Monte Carlo Rally.

Starting in 1967, the 95 kept up with the 96 in terms of trim, functions and accessories, including the same seats as the 99, starting in 1969. All in all, over 100,000 95's were produced from 1959 through 1978 - the last year the 95 was sold in the US was 1973.
