Opel Kapitan Specs, Engines & Dimensions (1969–1970) — Sixth Generation
The sixth-generation Opel Kapitan is a full-size sedan built for relaxed long-distance travel, pairing a roomy cabin with smooth, unhurried gasoline power sent to the rear wheels.
The Opel Kapitan engine choice centres on a 2.8-litre gasoline unit, tuned for easy torque rather than high revs. You can pick the 2.8 MT with its manual gearbox for more direct control, or the 2.8 AT, whose automatic suits city traffic. Both send drive to the rear wheels, a classic drivetrain layout that keeps steering light and the ride settled.
