Bloomberg, Swedish daily Dagens Indusrri and other media said Wednesday that the Chinese-Japanese investment group National Electric Vehicle Sweden (NEVS), that may build electric cars, agreed to buy Saab Automobile and bring the Swedish manufacturer back from bankruptcy.

Anne-Marie Pouteaux and Hans Bergqvist, Saab’s bankruptcy administrators, said in a statement that the carmaker has been sold and the purchaser will be identified at a press conference later today.

The group, led by Japanese investment firm Sun Investment and Hong Kong-based renewable-energy power-plant builder National Modern Energy Holdings Ltd., will make the announcement later Wednesday, an unidentified person told Bloomberg.

The principal owner of NEVS, with a 51 percent stake, is National Modern Energy Holdings. The company is registered on British Virgin Islands, but is owned by Hong Kong-based China Dragon Base Holding.

The Hong Kong-based firm is controlled by 47-year-old Swedish-Chinese businessman Kai Johan Jiang, who is expected to become CEO of NEVS.
