Revell 1/18 Volvo 121 Amazon 1966 Red (08865)
1956 Volvo publicly exhibited the 120 series known as the Amazon for the first time
internationally at Earl's Court in London. This well-proportioned vehicle offered a roomy
interior and a clearly laid-out dashboard with a prominent broadband speedometer.It was
already obvious that a high value was placed on passenger safety, as patented three-point
seat belts were available at extra charge from the outset and then as standard from 1959.
This robustly built, powerful, and therefore very attractive, Volvo was given the
appropriate name of "Amazon" after the female warriors of ancient Greek mythology. However,
as the cycle manufacturer Kreidler owned the rights to the name, the range was marketed in
many countries as the 120 series and the two-door as the P121. Volvo wished to meet the
highest standards of quality and workmanship and the concept took off. The lovely Amazon
attracted large numbers of buyers.The car became a best seller and enabled the automotive
engineers from G teborg to gain new export markets, particularly in the USA.
