Volvo 120 Series Specs, Engines & Dimensions (1956–1970)

Volvo 120 Series Engines and Transmissions

Every Volvo 120 Series engine here is a gasoline four-cylinder driving the rear wheels through a manual gearbox, as in the 1.6 MT and 1.8 MT Sedans. These are examples rather than the full range; the larger displacement generally brings easier overtaking, while the drivetrain layout rewards unhurried, steady cruising.
