GAZ 24 Specs, Engines & Dimensions (1985–1992) — Second Generation
The second-generation GAZ 24 is a full-size Soviet sedan built for durability on rough roads, with a roomy cabin, simple mechanicals and a classic front-engine, rear-drive layout that owners can still service themselves.
The GAZ 24 engine range centres on large-displacement gasoline units tuned for low-end pulling power rather than high revs. A representative example is the 2.5 MT sedan, pairing a manual transmission with rear-wheel drive. That straightforward powertrain keeps maintenance cheap and makes the drivetrain easy to diagnose.
