Oldsmobile Cutlass Engines and Transmissions

Every Oldsmobile Cutlass engine here is gasoline and sends power to the rear wheels. The 4.1 MT Cabrio pairs a modest displacement with a manual gearbox, while the 6.6 AT and 7.5 AT rely on automatics, trading fuel economy for the relaxed, torque-rich pull that suits big-displacement V8 cruising.
