A classic Volvo Brick isn’t usually the first car that comes to mind when you think of excitement, though this 262C has a little extra going for it. Bertone gave the coupe a lowered roofline for a sportier profile, yet even with that styling tweak, it’s hardly the sort of car you’d expect to deliver any real punch.
That’s exactly what makes it a proper sleeper, hiding capability behind an unassuming exterior that flies under the radar. Builds like this delight in subverting expectations, letting the driver enjoy the surprise on anyone who underestimates the boxy Swedish coupe. Beneath its modest looks lies a personality that rewards those willing to look past first impressions.
