It's not every day to see a manufacturer make a whole range in one room. Lancia, after years of absence from the international scene with great new substance, he did it, here in Geneva. Ypsilon Delta Model Year 2011, Flavia, Flavia Convertible, Thema, Voyager. Thanks, then, the essential contribution of Chrysler for the segments above, the Turin was finally able to build a comprehensive and articulate.

Sure, Flavia sedan and convertible are still very close to the concept-car-production, but as announced in a press conference by Olivier Francois "in case of positive response we will be able to produce within six months." The smallest of the new Lancia, Ypsilon, is in terms of market volume the most important news: after 25 years and over a half million cars in circulation, the small Lancia (Autobianchi and before) will go on sale in June in major European markets and from September with Chrysler in Great Britain and Ireland.
