Opel Super Six Specs, Engines & Dimensions (1936–1938) — First Generation
The first-generation Opel Super Six arrived as a roomy pre-war family car, offered as a Cabrio, a two-door Sedan and a four-door Sedan sharing the same smooth six-cylinder character.
Every body style here uses the same recipe: a 2.5-litre gasoline Opel Super Six engine driving the rear wheels through a manual gearbox. A six-cylinder of this size pulls willingly from low revs, so the powertrain feels relaxed in traffic and needs fewer gearchanges on open roads. Rear-wheel drive keeps the drivetrain layout simple and easy to service.
