Based on the Volvo 200 Series, the 262C was built by Bertone in Turin for the 1977-1981 model years.{{Sfn|McCourt|2006}} Concept and designA team of American executives and engineers led by Henry Ford II had visited a Volvo factory in the mid-1970s and had brought Continental Mark IVs to drive. The car generated interest among both the Volvo staff and the people living in the area. Without the facilities to spare on a low volume project, Volvo arranged with Bertone to build the coupe.{{Sfn |McCourt |2006}} The drivetrain, suspension, floor pan, and many of the body panels of the 262C were taken directly from the Volvo 260 sedan, with Bertone building the roof pillars, roof pan, windshield surround, cowl, and the upper parts of the doors.{{Sfn|McCourt|2006}} The roof of the 262C is about 10 cm lower than that of the 260 sedan. The 262C used the PRV engine, a V6 engine developed jointly by Peugeot, Renault, and Volvo.{{Sfn|McCourt|2006}} The engine used a Lambda-sond oxygen sensor system; this was the first use of this system on a production V engine.{{Sfn |Hartford |1978 |p=42}} Standard equipment included power windows and mirrors, central locking, full leather interior, cruise control, air conditioning, heated front seats, alloy wheels and electrically powered radio antenna. The only optional extras were a limited-slip differential, a choice of stereos, and the no-cost option of a Borg-Warner three-speed automatic instead of the four-speed manual with electrically operated overdrive.{{Sfn|McCourt|2006}} By 1981, the manual option had been deleted in the US.[2] ReceptionAimed mainly at the United States market, the 262C was Volvo's first entry in the luxury car market. About half of the annual production was earmarked for the United States.[2] It competed against the Cadillac Eldorado and the Mercedes-Benz 280CE. 6622 cars were produced from 1978 to 1980.{{Sfn|McCourt|2006}} DevelopmentIn 1979 the 262C was given a deeper trunk lid, wrap around taillights, and thermostatic heater controls. Manual transmission cars got the shift linkage from the 242GT.{{Sfn|McCourt|2006}} In 1980 the engine bore was increased from {{convert|3.468|in|mm|abbr=on|disp=flip}} to {{convert|3.58|in|mm|abbr=on|disp=flip}}, resulting in a displacement increase from {{convert|2664|cc|cuin|abbr=on}} to {{convert|2849|cc|cuin|abbr=on}}. The engine was also reconfigured, with seven main bearing instead of four and an increase in compression ratio from 8.2:1 to 8.8:1. Also in 1980 the front air dam from the 242GT was added to the 262C.{{Sfn|McCourt|2006}} For North America, the 2.8-litre engine produces {{convert|130|hp|kW|0|abbr=on}}.[2] In 1981, the last year of production, the vinyl roof was deleted.{{Sfn|McCourt|2006}} Notes{{commonscat|Volvo 262 C}}1. ^{{cite web |language=en |url=https://www.volvoclub.org.uk/pdf/brochures/IMP-262C.pdf |title=Volvo 262c |publisher=Volvo Car Corporation |format=PDF |access-date=2018-01-08 |dead-url=no}} 2. ^1 2 {{cite journal |journal=Road & Track's Road Test Annual & Buyer's Guide 1981 |issue=January-February 1981 |title=1981 Buyer's Guide |editor-first=Tony |editor-last= Hogg |page=127 }} References
