At the onset of the 1970s energy crisis, Volvo, once a leader in sales of affordable and reliable cars, like many other automakers at the time, found themselves turned upside down, struggling to keep up with market demands. As the world transitioned to smaller and more economical vehicles, Volvo had already found itself deeply embroiled in serious problems. The company needed to create a car that would either revive the brand or lead to its demise. This is the story of the Volvo 700 Series!

The 262C was built, but not designed by Bertone. The designer was no other than Jan Wisgaard himself.

We ended Up buying a 740 After a breakdown with a little Ford, Headgasket, 400 Miles from Home. The Quality of the Volvo, built in 89, is unbelievable after all this years. It will never be for sale

…that was well laid out & highly informative. I am in the SF Bay Area and recently sold my 1992 740 Turbo Wagon that I have owned since 1999 and in excellent shape. She had 101K miles for she was my airport car in Portland. I had so much fun with this peppy wagon and am glad it was purchased by an enthusiast from Carmel, CA.

That is a really good documentary. As something of a Volvo encyclopedia myself, I learned some new info even! Nice job.

Good video man, been a Volvo owner for about 20 years, would love a 760 intercooler estate. 900 series next? 🤘

Agreed, great video, and as the owner of two 940 Estates, on turbo and one non-turbo, I’d love to see a 900 series video sometime in the future. 😃 I’m convinced the 200-700-900 series Volvos are the most robust and reliable cars ever made!

@@RedLine_Car_Show hey good stuff man, look forward to it. Especially like the special edition section and models in different countries with specs we didn't get in the UK. I have a 96 b230ft manual with shockingly bad lacquer peel! 😂

Much appreciated, guys! I've been getting more interested in Swedish cars myself, so there will definitely be more videos about them, not only Volvos too, although the upcoming episode will be about a Japanese car, but don't miss out on the ones after it, too!😉
