Volvo 760 Wagon. Featuring advanced engine options and significant updates
With the 760 wagon, introduced in early 1985, Volvo introduced what was virtually the finest wagon in the world.
The 'basic' version of the 760GLE wagon was driven by a developed version of the French V6 engine previously used in the 260 Series, but this was supplemented by a very fast 4-cyl. Turbo version with Intercooler and with a 6-cyl. Diesel version with Intercooler. Thanks to good performance and low fuel consumption, it offered superior comfort over long distances and an unparalleled cruising range.
The most extensive change to the 760GLE sedan took place in 1987, when the frontal appearance was changed. Unlike the sedan version, however, the 760 wagon did not receive the multi-link rear axle.
