Chrysler 180 Specs, Engines & Dimensions (1970–1976) — First Generation
The first-generation Chrysler 180 is a rear-drive family sedan. You are looking at this generation’s sedan bodies: practical petrol cars with a conventional layout for everyday touring.
A typical Chrysler 180 engine runs on petrol, as in the 1.6 MT and 1.8 MT sedan examples. Both use a manual transmission and a rear-wheel-drive drivetrain, so the powertrain is simple: you shift, and the rear wheels drive. The 1.8 is calmer on longer trips; the 1.6 is the lighter daily pick.
