Volvo 120 Series Specs and Generations

The Volvo 120 Series is a classic Swedish family car built around sturdy engineering and everyday practicality. Here is how its generations, body styles and specifications differ, and what to weigh before choosing a version.

Volvo 120 Series Generations

The Volvo 120 Series generations are represented here by the First Generation, offered in several body styles: a Coupe, a Sedan and a five-door Estate. Start by deciding how much space and how many doors you need, since that choice narrows the versions far faster than model year alone.

Volvo 120 Series Specifications

Volvo 120 Series specifications rest on gasoline power across the represented range, but output, gearing and trim varied through production. Dimensions, equipment and powertrain details belong to a particular generation and version, so read the specs for the exact car rather than assuming one set of figures covers the whole model.
