The SCNA, One Acronym, Two Distinct Meanings

Posted on 16. Nov, 2009 by Ryan in 2000-2009

The usage of the acronym, SCNA has historically been referred to in Saab circles as the Saab Club of North America that was created around 2001 and continues to be used today.

In October of 2009, the new organization in the United States representing Saab is now also using this acronym to represent Saab Cars North America, Inc.

While, we have already started to hear about people having to clarify when you say SCNA, you are referring to the club or the company?. In addition, people have received alternate results searching for “SCNA” into google, expecting results about the club or vice versa. It seemed like this at least needed to be addressed.

A suggestion was made that seems to work as a quick and easy solution to this confusion by using the acronym. In order to best separate these search terms, actually writing out both the club and the company Saab Cars North America, Inc. and/or Saab Club of North America instead of the acronym would work best. It may take a bit longer, but it should yield better results for everyone.
