[2] The new Kingswood was offered as a mid range full size 4-door only 9 passenger model, with rear-facing 3rd row jump-seat standard.

A variety of speed options, such as fuel injection, special cams and bettered compression, gave horsepower ratings up to 315.

Fuel injection was no longer available, but with the 348 cubic inch engine, a horsepower rating of 335 at 5800 rpm was now achieved.

This involved the use of three double-barrel carburetors, a special cam and an 11.25:1 compression ratio, all sold as a package.

[4] This design was later criticized as providing less protection in the event of a side impact collision, but would persevere until 1965.

[5] General Motors discontinued the Chevrolet Kingswood wagon nameplate after only two years.

The Kingswood name returned for the 1969 model year to a station wagon based on the Impala, and was available only with a V8.
