Four-wheel-disc brakes with ABS, dual-stage front airbags with passenger sensing, and side curtain airbags come standard on every 2006 Saab 9-7X. The side curtain airbags include a rollover-sensing module that triggers both the airbags and the seatbelt pretensioners when a rollover is imminent. This electronic system measures vertical and lateral acceleration, vehicle speed, and roll weight in its determination to deploy the airbags. A stability control system is also standard on 2006 models.

The 9-7X also features a six-disc in-dash CD player with six premium Bose speakers as standard equipment. Audio controls are found both on the steering wheel and on the dash, as well as in back of the center console within reach of rear seat occupants. All passengers can control the volume on both the audio and available rear DVD entertainment systems. Unfortunately, Saab is unable to allow customers to order a power sunroof in tandem with the rear DVD entertainment system.

Another creature-friendly feature, the dual-zone automatic climate control, is fitted with an electrostatic/carbon filter that removes particles from the incoming air, effectively blocking dust, pollen, soot, and harmful gases or vapors.
