Front 4-cylinder side valve water-cooled rear drive Front 8-cylinder ohv water-cooled rear drive. Front 4-cylinder ohv water cooled front drive. Rear 4-cylinder ohv air-cooled rear wheel drive. There is also different iron and aluminium engine configurations. The similarity is all are 4-passenger - and all have a luggage compartment when the hatchback was not popular yet.
