Opel Kapitan Specs, Engines & Dimensions (1964–1968) — Fifth Generation
The fifth-generation Opel Kapitan is a full-size rear-wheel-drive sedan built for relaxed long-distance travel, pairing a large-capacity petrol engine with a choice between shifting gears yourself or letting an automatic handle the work.
The Opel Kapitan engine in these examples is a 2.8-litre petrol unit driving the rear wheels, a classic layout that favours smooth, unhurried pulling power. The 2.8 MT keeps you in charge through a manual gearbox, while the 2.8 AT swaps that involvement for an easier time in traffic.
