Plymouth Volare Specs, Engines & Dimensions (1975–1980) — First Generation
The first-generation Plymouth Volare arrived as a compact family car built for everyday American driving, and its Coupe bodies paired practical proportions with a straightforward mechanical layout that owners could live with and service easily.
Every Plymouth Volare engine here runs on gasoline, driving the rear wheels through either a manual gearbox or an automatic transmission. Smaller inline six-cylinder units emphasise economy and simple upkeep, while larger V8 options add relaxed torque for highway cruising and loaded driving. Expect unhurried, low-stress performance rather than outright speed.
