The S40 of 1962 was dramatically restyled and enlarged because the new Corona now filled the smaller niche, and it brought the Custom model. It started with four cylinder R engines and added an M six cylinder in 1965. The grille echoed the 1960 Chrysler Imperial Crown, and the long wheelbase Crown Eight with a 2.6 liter V8, introduced for sale on 20 April 1964, sat above it. It reached Canada in 1964 and Curacao in 1965.
