Known as the Amazon in Sweden, this Volvo, launched in 1956, was renamed 120 Series abroad because its original name was another company’s property. Designed by Jan Wilsgaard, who was only 26 years old, the 2 or 4-door Amazon is strongly inspired by American car design, and more particularly Chrysler models. This 100 hp DIN 2-litre 123 GT, released in 1966, was the most powerful Amazon.
