AC 2-Litre Specs, Engines & Dimensions (1947–1956) — First Generation
The AC 2-Litre of the first generation is a postwar British saloon built in small numbers, offered as Cabrio, Coupe, Sedan and Phaeton bodies on a shared mechanical layout.
The AC 2-Litre engine is a two-litre gasoline unit driving the rear wheels through a manual gearbox, as seen in the 2.0 MT Coupe. This classic front-engine, rear-drive powertrain favours smooth, unhurried cruising rather than outright speed, and the manual transmission asks the driver to work with a modest spread of torque.
