FactThe 330 started life in 1962 as a trim above the Dart, then flipped in 1963 to become the base model beneath it.
The Dodge 330 is a mid-size car marketed by Dodge for the 1962 model year as a trim level above the base Dodge Dart and, for 1963 and 1964, the base trim of the mid-size lineup, one of the first unibody vehicles using the B-body (production until 1965 in Canada). It came as a 2- or 4-door sedan and 6- or 9-passenger station wagon (a 2-door hardtop in 1962), styled by Virgil Exner for 1962 and revised by Elwood Engel for 1963 and 1964, on a 119 in (3,023 mm) wheelbase at 208.1 in long, with a higher-trimmed 440 and Polara on the same platform; as an intermediate trim above the Dart it came standard with a cigarette lighter, front foam cushions and rear armrests. The base engine was the 225 Slant-Six with the 318 two-barrel, 361 two-barrel, 383 two- and four-barrel and 426 four-barrel optional. For 1965 full-size Dodges moved to the new C platform (121 in wheelbase) and the 330, 440 and 880 were all replaced by the Polara; in Canada the 330 continued one more year as the base model. The Max Wedge is catalogued as its own generation; the page gives no power figures for the standard engines.

It briefly served as senior sibling to Marquette, a GM companion brand cancelled after just one year.
Nissan hired former BMW engineers to help develop the 510's suspension, which is why period reviewers frequently compared its handling to the BMW 1600/2002.
A Trabant 601 won its class at the 1970 Monte Carlo Rally, with a second 601 right behind it in second.
The 600 was a stopgap: the P50's body over the 601's mechanicals, and for a while its estate was built alongside the new 601 saloon.
The G80 Sport brought a 370 PS twin-turbo 3.3 V6, a mesh grille and copper-tinted chrome with copper stitching to match.
The Vigor was sold only with a five-cylinder engine, an unusual configuration Honda used to fit a longer engine transversely under a short hood.
The GS/E coupe earned the nickname "German Charger" for its long hood, short deck stance borrowed from Detroit muscle cars.
This DeVille/Fleetwood was the first production car anywhere to mount its V8 sideways, Cadillac's front-drive gamble on the new C-body.
