Dutch Volvo Compacts (1): Volvo 66

Dutch carmaker DAF introduced the 66 in 1972. It was equipped with tiny Renault engines and CVTs (Take that, Audi!). It came in two door sedan, two door coupe, and three door wagon forms.

Then, in 1975, Volvo bought DAF. Aside from the Volvo emblems, it made a number of upgrades, all in the name of safety. These changes included: larger bumpers, seats with headrests, safety steering wheel, and side impact beams in doors.

Luxurious Volvo?
