Facts about the model
Volvo soon realized that there was a large market for spacious vehicles and figured they might as well build such cars themselves. The answer was the Volvo Duett, launched in the summer of 1953. The name comes from Volvo's idea of the car as both a commercial vehicle and a leisure vehicle. Chassis production continued alongside Duett production on an ongoing basis until 1961.
The Duett came to be developed in parallel with the Volvo PV 444 and Volvo PV 544. The Duett was actually manufactured all the way until 1969, and despite being an outdated model by the late 1960s, it still sold well. The cars designated as 1969 model year were built after the industrial summer holiday of 1968. Only a marginally small number of Duetts were produced in 1969, before production ceased in February of that year.

General information about the condition of the vehicles .
- At this auction, many vehicles have been included in car collections and have been stored (mothballed) for a long time. For this reason, they are described from a collector's perspective and may need technical reviews and maintenance service - oil, battery replacement, new tires, brake review, etc. - before they can be used. .
- During the auction days information about a vehicle may be updated up to the day before the auction ends. When you bid at the end of the auction period - and also if you have made an earlier bid - we therefore ask you to read the descriptions carefully, in case something has been changed due to new information.
