Limited Production Run
Official Volvo records show that 8,518 Volvo 780s were built between 1985 and 1990, with yearly outputs such as 683 units in 1985‑86, 2,035 in 1986‑87, and 2,334 in 1987‑88. The model entered production in 1986 and left the line after just four years.
Bertone Design and No Direct Successor
The 780 was the expensive, Bertone‑styled coupé version of the Volvo 700 series. After its four‑year lifespan, Volvo discontinued the 780 without introducing a direct replacement model.
Unique Model‑Year Badging
Cars built with chassis numbers starting at 6500 from the end of August 1988 through December 1988 were badged as 1989‑model‑year vehicles in every market except Sweden, where they retained the 1988 designation.
