Vehicle Description
The Volvo 262C is considered Volvo's first "Luxury Coupe". The
inspiration came from an group of American automotive
industrialists led by Henry Ford ll, traveled to Sweden to tour
Volvo's new Kalmar factory. The Americans brought with them cars to
drive, all were 2 door Lincoln Mark coupes with low roofs and wide
C-pilars. American Cars were rare in Sweden, and they caught the
attention of Swedish people inside and outside the Factory. Volvo
courted European body designer Carrozzeria Bertone to take on the
luxury coupe project and the 262C Bertone Coupe was born. The body
and interior conversions offered by Bertone added a level of luxury
never seen before in a Volvo
