Volvo 262. A rare version in the 260 family.
The Volvo 262 was a rare version in the Volvo 260 family. It was based on the same 2-door body used for the 242, but it naturally had the 260-series components and frontal appearance.
A limited volume of this model was produced specifically for the North American market during a period of two years.
Unlike the Bertone-built 262C (Coupé) the 262 had an identical roofline compared to the 242 model.
