In late 1967, the second generation of the Volkswagen Type 2 (T2) was introduced. It was built in West Germany until 1979. In Mexico, the Volkswagen Kombi and Panel were produced from 1970 to 1994. Models before 1971 are often called the T2a (or "Early Bay"), while models after 1972 are called the T2b (or "Late Bay").
The second generation T2 lost the trademark split windscreen, losing the early nickname the Splittie in the process, and were instead referred to as Breadloaf and Bay-window, or Loaf and Bay for short. It was slightly larger and considerably heavier than the earlier model. Initially powered by a 1593cc engine of 47bhp and with the elecrical system now 12 volt.The new model also did away with the swing axle rear suspension and transfer boxes previously used to raise ride height. Instead, half-shaft axles fitted with constant velocity joints raised ride height without the wild changes in camber of the Beetle-based swing axle suspension. The T2A was updated as a T2B for 1971 the first models featured rounded bumpers incorporating a step for use when the door was open (replaced by indented bumpers without steps on later models), front doors that opened to 90° from the body, no lip on the front guards, unique engine hatches, and crescent air intakes in the D-pillars (later models after the Type 4 engine option was offered, have squared off intakes), early T2Bs featured a new, 1.6 L engine of 50bhp . For 1972 the 1.6ltr engine was dropped in favour of 1.7 and 2.0 ltr engines and a redesigned rear end which eliminated the removable rear apron. The rear air inlets were also enlarged to enable extra cooling
