#Lancia Gamma Coupé

[carsthatnevermadeitetc]

Lancia Gamma Scala Concept, 1980, by Pinifarina. Introduced in 1976, the 4-door boxer-engined Gamma was a sales failure and the saloon's fastback styling was blamed. Pininfarina designer Aldo Brovarone, who had designed the more successful Gamma Coupé, presented this 4 door saloon based on the Coupé at the Paris Motor Show. It was suggested that car could be in production within 18 months to "rescue" the Gamma from oblivion. An "Americanised" version with twin square headlamps (Lancias were still sold in the US at this time) was shown at the Birmingham Motor Show. However Lancia were already planning the Gamma's replacement with Italdesign (the Thema) and Brovarone's concept failed to develop beyond prototype stage.

Lancia Flaminia - Histoire d'une voiture de luxe Italienne

La Lancia Flaminia était l’un des véhicules les plus exclusifs et les plus prestigieux de son époque.

La Lancia Flaminia était une voiture de luxe du constructeur italien , Lancia, construite de 1957 à 1970. C'était le modèle phare de Lancia à cette époque, remplaçant l' Aurelia. Elle était disponible tout au long de sa vie en tant que berline, coupé, cabriolet. Un modèle de limousine allongée était même créé pour le service officiel. La Flaminia (à l'exception de la berline) était une voiture de carrosserie avec des carrosses des plus prestigieux carrossiers italiens. La disparition de ce modèle en 1970 a laissé un vide seulement comblé par Lancia Gamma en 1976. Avec seulement 12 633 ventes sur 13 ans, les Flaminias étaient des voitures véritablement exclusives et uniques, et sont de très rares objets de collection. Il est intéressant de noter que les coupés dépassent de loin la variante à 4 portes, malgré des cycles de production plus courts et des carrosseries carrossées.

Développement de la Lancia Flaminia Le châssis de la Flaminia était un développement de celui de l’Aurelia, mais avait été considérablement amélioré. Plus important encore, la suspension avant était indépendante et comportait deux triangles de suspension; des ressorts hélicoïdaux, des amortisseurs télescopiques et une barre antiroulis. La suspension arrière a conservé la configuration De Dion, avec une boîte-pont montée à l'arrière comme dans l'Aurelia. Au début, la Flaminia était équipée de freins à tambour! mais les disques avaient été remplacés après la construction des quelque 500 premières voitures. Le corps développé par Pininfarina et présenté en avant-première par les prototypes Florida basés sur Aurelia . Alors que la Florida I , présentée au salon de l'automobile de Turin en 1956 , était une berline à portes suicides! la Florida II , présentée un an plus tard au Salon International de l'Auto à Genève , était un coupé et était devenue la voiture personnelle de Battista Pininfarina. choix. La production finale Lancia Flaminia a également été_montrée en 1957. Berlina Berlina était le nom donné par Lancia à la version berline ( berline signifie littéralement une carrosserie à quatre portes). Conçu par Pininfarina sur la base du prototype Florida I. Fabriqué à la main par Lancia, comme étant le seul pour Flaminia. C'était également le seul organisme à durer toute la période de production. Il y avait 3 344 berlines construites avec le moteur de 2,5 litres (spécification 102/110 cv)! et 599 supplémentaires avec le moteur de 2,8 litres (128 cv). Assemblés dans les anciennes installations de Lancia à Borgo Sao Paolo en tant que dernier modèle à y_être construit. La toute première série avait un double pare-brise sur la lunette arrière (2 à l'extérieur et 2 à l'intérieur). Ceux-ci sont_supprimés sur les dernières versions. Coupé Le Coupé a également été écrit par Pininfarina et construit par le carrossier. C'était très semblable au prototype Florida II avec une disposition 2 + 2 et un empattement raccourci! comme toutes les versions à 2 portes. La face avant du Coupé est presque identique à celle de la Berlina. On retrouve le cadre des phares complètement arrondi. Légèrement orientés vers le haut dans la berline. 5 236 Coupés (4 151 au 2,5, 1 085 au 2,8) ont_été construits jusqu'en 1967. Site officiel Lancia https://youtu.be/zxqoGixqkIw Read the full article

Lancia Gamma (2026): why a name synonymous with commercial failure for the future SUV coupe?

Under the impetus of the Stellantis group, which became its owner in 2020, Lancia is regaining its colors and aims to launch three new models, by 2028, recently prefigured by the Pu+Ra HPE concept car. A splendid coupé which will inspire future revivals successful, with Lancia planning the return of the Ypsilon next year and the Delta four years later. The only problem is the reuse of the Gamma…

The Grand Tour special: Jeremy Clarkson and co on returning for a new series of globetrotting high jinks

“Buckle up, world, we’re ready to rumble again”

Steppe brothers: fraternity was in short supply in Mongolia, where Clarkson, May and Hammond had to build a small off-road machine to get them back to civilisation To make the new Amazon Prime series of The Grand Tour we went to China, Sweden, Arizona, France, Doncaster, Finland, Detroit, Mongolia, Spain, Azerbaijan, Colombia, Georgia, Doha and Scotland. China was the worst. It was a nightmare. The location was Chongqing, which, with more than 30m people — if you count everyone in the metropolitan area, — is the biggest city in the world. And don’t feel embarrassed: I hadn’t heard of it either. It’s known as the furnace of China because in the summer the average daytime temperature is well above 40C and the sky is a constant, dripping-wet shade of grey. It’s like being in a hot bath and, hilariously, the air-con in James May’s crummy old Mercedes S-class was broken. This made him very cantankerous.

Take the high road: the three plot the route for their Scottish drive

Richard Hammond was also cantankerous because he thinks it’s weird to eat fish. So he was completely flummoxed by the local dish, which is a cow’s tendon cooked at the table in a bucket of chilli-infused napalm. And lived for eight days on nothing but rice. I was also cantankerous because in Mandarin there’s only one word and it’s no. After six months you finally get a permit to film on one side of the road but when you arrive it’s obvious that you should actually film on the other. It makes no difference to anyone. Nobody would care. But when you ask for permission the answer is no. God knows how they have a problem with overpopulation. And there’s no point shouting because the Chinese regard us in the same way that we regard slightly fat insects. Three days in and I was tearing my hair out. I’d love to say that despite the issues we came back with a gem of a film. A masterpiece. But the truth is it’s a turd. We’ve polished it, of course, till it gleams and sparkles with handsome panache, and it is fun watching May literally melting. But it’s still a turd. Detroit is the opposite. It’s bloody great. All of us tear around that post-apocalyptic backdrop in three muscle cars. And muscle cars, as I say in the film, are like power-rock ballads. If someone asks if you like Journey’s Don’t Stop Believin’, you’ll huff and puff and say, “No, of course not.” But if you are driving alone on your own and it comes on the radio, you will turn it up and sing along. Yes, you will. Don’t argue. So it goes with the cars we were driving: a 700bhp-plus Ford Mustang RTR, a 840bhp Dodge Challenger SRT Demon and the 1,000bhp Hennessey Exorcist Camaro. Stupid cars. Stupid noises. And stupid names. I mean, RTR stands for “Ready to Rock”, and how infantile is that? Very, and I don’t care. I loved all those cars and I loved racing them in the derelict factories. It’s one of the best films we’ve done in years. And one of the most enjoyable to make. Detroit is coming back. You can find a restaurant that serves dumplings in a goose broth right next door to a blood-spattered crime scene. And you can buy a four-bedroom house for £1,800. I know, because we did. And that was one of the lighter moments. In Colombia a spectacled bear ate my headlamp; in Arizona I was trapped on the roof of a moving and driverless recreational vehicle; in France I chased down a De Tomaso Pantera GTS — and all that’s before we get to the track stuff and the McLaren Senna and the Alpina, and the Jaguar XE SV Project 8 and the new Lancia Stratos. It’s been one hell of a year, and there hasn’t even been time so far to mention how we filled Lincoln Cathedral with anoraks or how I drove a Lamborghini Urethra up a ski slope. Not even Sir Attenborough does more in a series. And not even Tom Cruise travels further on his impossible missions. But the best bit, for me, was our trip to Scotland. The idea was simple. In these days of escalating classic-car values, even a Ford Escort Mexico will cost you more than £60,000. So we decided to see if there are any old, interesting and pretty cars out there that can still be bought for sensible money. Pretty soon we had a Fiat X1/9, a Lancia Gamma and an Alfa Romeo GTV6. And all we needed then was somewhere to test them out. We settled on Scotland because one of our producers is from north of the border. Which meant we could show the rain and the heroin and the midges and he’d be livid with us. To begin with, everything went perfectly. It was terrible. The weather was miserable, my Alfa broke down, the houses looked as if they’d been deep fried in batter, there were speed cameras everywhere and every view had a rusting oil rig in it. “This is not at all how it looks on the shortbread tins,” dead-panned Hammond.

Off-road included on water in Mongolia But then our plan went wrong, because we somehow ended up on the A835 from Inverness to Ullapool and, let’s not beat about the bush, it was spectacular. We’ve travelled the world in search of the best road and we’ve come across many contenders. There’s the Transfagarasan Highway in Romania, the road from Davos in Switzerland to Cortina in Italy and the Hai Van Pass in Vietnam. There were snow-capped mountains. There was sky the colour of an Icelandic girl’s eyes. There were slate-grey lakes and linking it all together was a twisting and turning ribbon of grey with absolutely nothing on it. Almost every great bit of road these days is ruined by cyclists huffing and puffing in one direction and coming at you like gristle missiles in the other. But not the A835. There were none. There weren’t even any police patrol cars because they’re all on the so-called “North Coast 500”. Described by Condé Nast Traveler magazine as possibly the best road trip in the world, it’s become a magnet for Subaru and Mitsubishi Evo enthusiasts. And Plod, who likes to pull the cars over to look at their engines and fine the drivers. There’s none of that nonsense on the route we found and as a result the drive I had in that Alfa was up there alongside a trip on gravel roads through the Northern Territory in Australia in a BMW M6 Gran Coupé and another through the Atacama desert in Chile in an on-its-last-legs Range Rover. I shall never forget it. If this were the last series of The Grand Tour, I’d go to the vegetable garden with my pipe and slippers a happy man after a drive like that. But contrary to what you may have heard, it isn’t the last series. You’ve got us for a few more years yet — starting on January 18.

Lancia Gamma Coupé

[carsthatnevermadeitetc]

Boxing Day Boxers: Part 5 – Lancia Gamma Spider, 1978. Lancia's pushrod flat-4 alloy engine had been around since 1960 and was re-engineered with overhead cams in 2.0 and 2.5 litre forms for the Gamma in 1976. The boxer-engined Gamma Coupé was designed by Pininfarina who followed it with a T-roof version that had a removable rear window. The Spider did not advance beyond prototype stage but it was used the early 1980s by Pope John Paul II when he toured North Italy

Lancia Gamma Spider Concept, 1978, by Pininfarina. A T-roof version of the Lancia Gamma Coupe (also designed and built at Pininfarina) which was one of a fleet of Gamma Coupe-based prototypes. The plastic rear window zipped out and the roof sections folded into a compartment in the car’s trunk.

3 Boxes Good Part 6: Lancia Gamma Coupé, 1977. Designed by Aldo Brovarone at Pininfarina, the Gamma was powered by 2 and 2.5 litre flat 4 engines which made it difficult to compete against 6-cylinder rivals, however 6,790 were made between 1977 and 1984
