    This is the most beautiful memorial of what Lancia has been, and what has represented in the car manufactoring and motorsport, in its 110 years of history. Fiat / FCA have killed this legendary car brand years ago. Also they have let the brand desappear in the silence, without any official comment, without honors of war, after such a great history. Mr. Marchionne said once "Lancia won't be developped anymore because it is almost unknow internationally", in order to justify the lack of any new Lancia models roadmap. In Italy there are groups of passioned people , like #savelancia, trying to keep the memory and some light on this glorious brand.

      @RetroRidingEveryday Před 3 lety +4

      @@spavatch it's correct, you're right. Fiat bought Lancia 1969 for 1 (symbolic) Lira, Lancia was about to fail. Fiat reorganised the company and financed the development of all the 70's Lancia models. Fiat had good profits and results because models like Delta, Thema, Prisma, Beta were successful. But Lancia was still a company, with their own engineers, in particular the racing team was absolutely managed by Lancia guys. The Fiat disengagement from Lancia begun beginning of 90s, when they decided to transfer to Alfa Romeo materials and people coming the official Lancia rally team, putting an end to that legendary story and reducing the development of new products and models. For 10, 15 years Fiat has been poorly interested in making good Italian cars, and the results we see today are Lancia destroyed, Alfa Romeo near to fail, Fiat selling 1-2 models instead of a complete product line we were used to see in our roads.

    I'm an italian guy, every time i see a Lancia i think about the story of the brand itself, every time i see a Lancia Ypsilon i cry internally thinking about the story and all the innovation brought from this historical brand that now relies on only one (awful) vehicle. Since i can remember my granparents always had Lancias, like Kappa, Thema, Dedra and Appia and i happened to see some Delta, Stratos and Fulvia, all cars that one way or another helped to create the vehicles that we know today, it's so sad to see where the brand itself ended up.

    One more thing you need to know: the legacy of Delta Integrale. Alfa Romeo won the DTM titles in 1993, and fought for titles in 94-96 seasons with a car built on the Integrale 4wd transmission. And the 1996 Alfa for ITC used a V6 Lancia-improved engine.

      @nojustno7530 Před 4 lety +4

      It was NOT a Lancia engine. The 155 used a 90 degree V6 which neither of Alfa or Lancia.. The Alfa V6 back then (and until recently for that matter) was a 60 degree Busso, which was not compact enough to be used for the 155 in the racing series, so they turned to PRV V6 and modified it to death.
      The 155 Q4 however, had an Intergrale 4 cylinder turbocharged engine, with the same transmission as the Delta.

      @emanemanrus5835 Před 4 lety +8

      @@coraz98 DTM rules at the time said engine should have been derived from stock production, and "derived from stock" literally in the DTM Book of Rules was meaning just 2 requirements: 1) same angle of a stock engine, between cylinders banks (in case of a V-engine architecture), and 2) same distance/space between cylinders. In Alfa Corse they opted for a 90 deg. V-engine as optimal configuration, but none of the V6 engines in Alfa at the time had such angle. They opted for the PRV because since some time ago Alfa was merged with Lancia and the Group used the PRV engines for some Lancia Thema models (luxury sedan). So because of this historical record in the Alfa-Lancia group (then merged in FIAT and furtherly in FCA), they were allowed to design a V6 90 degrees for the DTM championship. The PRV engine was not copied or tuned for the DTM: its existence was just a justification for Alfa for being allowed to produce V6 90 deg. for the DTM, being compliant to the book of rules, but the DTM engine was a completely new design, not a "tuned" PRV.

    The beauty of Lancia Delta S4's 'TriFlux' engine isn't just the 'twin-charging' thing. In fact, it is the valve-train and intake / exhaust setup that makes it great. It has the diagonal 4 valve head (pair of intake valves placed diagonally, and also the exhaust valves), this allows the temperature of the cylinder spread more evenly. It also has a true dual exhaust for an inline 4 engine, and a 2 to 1 intake manifold that allows parallel twin-turbo works perfectly with a single supercharger in the middle. Hence the name 'TriFlux', means 3 ways airflow. It is one of the very unique designs that helps squeezing out the very last bit of performance from a supercharger or turbocharger. I don't remember any other car was using such design, and in the aviation side only the WW2 Soviet late version Yak 3 and Yak-9p fighter with Klimov VK-107 engine has a similar 3-ways airflow design (SOHC, supercharged only), which is another type of legend. (Note: Yak 9 with 7 exhaust per-side is the 3-airflow version)

I drive a 2004 Lancia Musa, my grandma drives a 1998 Ypsilon, my grandpa drove a 1989 Dedra until it was heavily damaged in a car crash. Even if my Musa is not comparable to the myths like the Fulvia or the Flavia I really love the history behind my clumsy MPV. I was hoping that FCA would do what it did with Alfa Romeo, bringing back the brand to life, but after the agreements between FCA and PSA I think that I will be so much disappointed and I fear I will see my favorite brand die once and for all.
