New Lancia Thema , Ypsilon

[Féline72]

Anche se in inglese ..., penso sia tutto chiaro...

According to a recent report, Lancia will introduce the new Ypsilon and Thema at the Geneva Motor Show.
Details are limited, but Automotive News says the redesigned Ypsilon will be offered in three- and five-door guise. It could resemble the mysterious renderings that appeared on the company's website, but we'll have to wait and see.
On the other hand, the Thema is expected to be a rebadged Chrysler 300. Destined to become the brand's flagship model, the car will reportedly offer three different engines: a 292 hp (218 kW / 296 PS) 3.6-liter V6, a 370 hp (276 kW / 375 PS) 5.7-liter HEMI V8, and a 230 hp (172 kW / 233 PS) 3.0-liter V6 turbodiesel. It is expected to go on sale in late 2011.

La realtà sarà ad anni luce da questi schizzi...purtroppo!

troppo bella, per cui non andrà in produzione.

Verosimili perché orripilanti

 

[blackshirt]

la ypsilon è praticamente già definitiva:

la nuova Thema sarà la Chrysler 200C con mascherina lancia:

 

[logisticapperi]

no black, la thema sarà su meccanica 300c, più grande e la mascherina anteriore sarò nuova, a listelli orizzontali.

Lancia to unveil Chrysler-based flagship, new Ypsilon in Geneva

TURIN, Italy ? Lancia will debut a Chrysler-based flagship and a new version of its best-selling model, the Ypsilon, at the Geneva auto show in March.

The Ypsilon is key to Fiat CEO Sergio Marchionne's plan to nearly triple Lancia sales in the next four years.

The Lancia flagship will be a rebadged version of the new Chrysler 300 sedan and will most likely be called the Thema, a name last used by Lancia in the 1980s and 1990s.

Lancia hopes the Thema will give the slow-selling brand an image boost but it will not be a volume seller with annual sales forecast between 10,000 and 15,000.

The Thema will go on sale starting in late 2011 with a Lancia badge in mainland Europe and as a Chrysler in the UK and Ireland, where Lancias are not sold.

The Lancia version of the Chrysler 300 will have minor tweaks, such as a different grille and Europe-specific bumpers. About 80 percent of Thema sales are expected to be a version with a new 230-hp, 3.0-liter V-6 turbodiesel engine built by Italy's VM Motori. The Lancia car will also offer the same gasoline engines as the Chrysler 300.

Both the Thema and 300 sedans will be built at Chrysler's factory in Brampton in Ontario, Canada.

The new Chrysler 300 for the U.S. market will debut in January at the Detroit auto show and will go on sale in North America in the first quarter. It replaces the six-year-old current car and has the new face of Chrysler, with a redesigned grille and badge. The interior has been redesigned to be more upscale than the current model.

Fiat, which controls Chrysler with a 20 percent stake in the U.S. carmaker, is integrating Lancia with Chrysler. ?All new Chryslers developed after the union with Lancia will have superb European handling. They will convey a real sense of feel for the road,? said Olivier Francois, Chrysler/Lancia CEO said at the Paris auto show in October.

Five-door Ypsilon

Fiat aims to boost Lancia's sales to 300,000 in 2014 from 112,000 last year and the company hopes adding a five-door Ypsilon will attract more buyers for the Fiat Panda-based new model.

The current Ypsilon, based on the past generation Fiat Punto, was launched only as a three-door in 2002 and will remain in production till the end of 2011.

?Five-door cars cover 75 percent of subcompact sales in Europe,? Luca Napolitano, head of the Lancia brand for Italy said at the Bologna motor show earlier this month.

Lancia plans to sell 130,000 units a year of the new Ypsilon, compared with 85,000 peaks sales of the current model in 2004 and about 60,000 units in the past two years.

The new Ypsilon will go on sale in June.

Flagship woes

Lancia built a car called Thema from 1984 to 1994. It was successful with 358,000 produced, but its replacement, called the K, was not so popular with just 117, 000 units built between 1994 and 2001.

Lancia last flagship, the Thesis, was introduced in 2002 and discontinued in early 2009 after poor sales. Only 16,000 Thesis units were built during the car's lifecycle.

Avete ragione entrambi, prima parlavano di 300, adesso di 200 :shock:
