Volvo 66 Engines and Transmissions

Volvo 66 engine choices include gasoline units in the 1.1 CVT sedan and estate, with the 1.3 CVT sedan providing a larger-engine example. These versions combine rear-wheel drive with a continuously variable transmission, which adjusts its ratio without fixed gear steps or requiring you to change gears manually.
