Lancia Ypsilon Sport, world preview

The real focus of attention on the Geneva stand is the Lancia Ypsilon Sport concept car. This original prototype, developed with the Zagato Design Centre, marks Lancia’s return to the sports car world. The model was designed with the aim of creating a car for everyday use but one that would offer the driver the behaviour and sensations of a real sports car, in the right situation.
This is why the Ypsilon Sport maintains the sober elegant line of the basic model which the public obviously appreciates, livened up by a number of more dynamic, aggressive elements. More substantial changes have been made on the inside, as you would expect of a car with a great temperament, because the driving position is the fulcrum around which the interior is designed.
But it is under the bonnet that the prototype really differs from other cars: it is the first time that the powerful 1.9 16v Multijet turbodiesel unit boosted to 150 bhp (110 kW at 4,100 rpm), with peak torque of 306 Nm at 2000 rpm, has been used in the city car segment. As a result, the debut of the Ypsilon Sport represents an important return by Lancia to ‘real sports cars’, but in an entirely new field, where powerful turbodiesels will dominate in the future. The result is an extremely up-to-date car, which explores innovative stylistic and engineering ideas, a concept car that embodies appealing styling, a great temperament and outstanding engineering. These are the Lancia Ypsilon Sport’s most striking features and the result of collaboration with Zagato, but also with a number of important partners such as Pirelli, Toora, Lear Corporation, MOMO, TRW, Olsa, Siemens, VDO, Marelli and Delphi.
The dimensions and architecture of the Lancia Ypsilon Sport are practically the same as those of the standard model, but there are a few small but significant details that transform an elegant car into a real sports car. The prototype manages to be more muscular, more assertive and more powerful, and the merit goes to the particular styling treatment which underlines the impression of a car that really ‘grips the road’, and which has modified or completely replaced a number of external details.
For example, the aggressive front contains many styling cues typical of Lancia-Zagato sports cars. The ‘large’ lower mouth on the new front bumper, necessary to cool the engine, is enhanced by hexagonal inserts typical of Zagato. The hexagon is repeated in the original dual exhaust tail-pipe which protrudes from the new rear bumper. And the car’s sporty personality is clearly evident from the side, where the bumpers are linked to the special sideskirts by wheelarch moulding. And the famous ‘Z’ logo of the Zagato Style Centre decorates the centre pillar.
The rear end of the Lancia Ypsilon Sport is the logical conclusion of the styling exercise of the concept car, starting with the tailgate, which has been modified and adapted stylistically to reflect the car’s innovative spirit. But the most striking detail, stylistically speaking, is the roof, which is made entirely of glass, smoothly connecting the windscreen and the rear window.
The styling of the lights and headlights has been altered slightly, and they continue to be perfectly integrated into the design of the original car. The alloy wheels on the other hand are entirely new, and were developed by the Lancia and Zagato Style Centres. The pearlescent three-coat ‘orange’ paintwork is also new, a modern interpretation of Lancia’s traditional racing colours.
From the outside to the inside. The interior of the Ypsilon Sport has undergone numerous significant changes, as you would expect from a car conceived to offer exciting performance combined with an extremely striking design. For example, the special steering wheel created by MOMO, which reflects styling features of Lancia and Zagato: the technical structure with visible steel reinforcements (painted aluminium), on which the leather-covered rim is mounted, concealing the airbag module. The whole effect is completed by analogue instrumentation with red lighting, a colour always associated with sports cars.
To emphasise its sporty vocation even more, the new Ypsilon Sport offers seats with additional containment designed and built with the Lear Corporation. The front seats have a painted carbon structure that supports a light shell, covered with fibreglass and carbon which the upholstery adheres to. The rear seats have been designed around a bearing structure of painted carbon into which two upholstered fibreglass and carbon shells have been inserted. This technique creates futuristic styling, combined with unequalled sturdiness and lightness, while guaranteeing excellent comfort at the rear.
The particular shape of the seats also meant changing the styling and overall structure of the interior. With its essential, clean lines, the passenger compartment is still elegant and refined, but it now has that touch of sportiness that you expect from a sporty Lancia. And finally, in order to make the structure lighter and give it a more ‘technical’ and innovative imprint, some elements have been eliminated, including the centre console, and the facia and door panels have been redesigned. The chrome details in the interior give a hand-crafted effect, and the details seem to be made of light aluminium and turned on a lathe. The upper woodwork on the ceiling recalls the opaque metallic treatment of the exterior. And to conclude the many changes to the Lancia Ypsilon Sport, the new carpet is made of a technical material containing chamois leather and rubber.
The prototype presented in Geneva has a decidedly sporty temperament, that evolves from its clean, essential design (and thus also elegant and attractive), that has made the basic model a success. But the makeover of the Lancia Ypsilon Sport must not be seen as a mere styling exercise, because the car has been tested on the race track where it proved its worth. Suffice it to say that the prototype equipped with the brilliant 150 bhp 1.9 Multijet engine and a manual 6-speed gearbox, has a top speed of 212 km/h, accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in 7.9 seconds and covers a kilometre in 28.9 seconds. Acceleration is also outstanding: 5.3 seconds to accelerate from 60 to 100 km/h (in 5th) and 7.3 seconds from 80 to 120 km/h (in 6th).
Someone who enjoys driving, will find that the ‘small’ Ypsilon by Zagato is a compact that behaves brilliantly on any road, always gratifying the driver. Added to this, the prototype offers better performance, greater braking capacity, and the dynamic behaviour of a car built for circuit racing. This is also the result of re-setting the suspension with new springs and racing dampers. A front strut has also been inserted to increase torsional rigidity, while the bushes have been replaced by another, stiffer type that is more suitable for racing. And finally, to enhance handling, the set-up has been lowered by 15 millimetres and the diameter of the anti-roll bar has been increased to make it more suitable for the car’s sporty performance, without losing any of the comfort that is a feature of the Ypsilon.
The geometry of the suspension and the sports trim guarantee outstanding dynamic performance, helped by the generous 205/40 R17 Pirelli PZero Nero tyres which have a special mixture and guarantee better stability on bends and greater absorption of surface irregularities and of vibration.
The technical features are completed by the braking system, specially developed by TRW, with 4 disc brakes: boosted to 320 mm at the front, with floating calipers and a single piston, while those at the rear have a diameter of 240 mm. The electric power steering has also been modified to adapt it to the stress induced by the car’s performance. And, to enhance driving safety, the Ypsilon Sport adopts a special TRW-designed VDC system, which can be excluded, as is traditional on sports cars.
The Lancia Ypsilon Sport is sure to attract anyone who appreciates a car, with great personality and appeal, even if it is still experimental. And today ‘Lancisti’ are still distinguished by the extraordinary passion and enthusiasm that they share with the people who design, test and build Lancia cars. Lancia remains one of the few makes of car that are supported by demanding fans who appreciate beauty but are also well informed where sophisticated technology is concerned. There is a common denominator that links all Lancia cars: a constant striving for innovation combined with exclusive Italian craftsmanship. Research that is essential not only for the spirit of the brand but also for the technological progress of the car. Underlined by hundreds of patents filed, resourceful inventions, and practical ideas developed by Lancia in almost one hundred years.
Collaboration agreements with some of the most famous Italian coachbuilders have contributed to this extraordinary human and technological heritage. Zagato is one of them; the designer from Milan specialises in sports cars, and since 1925 has customised numerous Lancia models with his creative touch, from the Lancia Lambda to the Aprilia Sport, the Flavia Sport 1.8, Fulvia Spider and Flaminia Sport. They were all cars derived from standard models which already embodied ‘elegant sportiness’ and which were transformed with expert, personal stylistic and mechanical changes. The bodywork was no longer a ‘dress’, but an integral part of the structure, and the craftsman responsible for the shape of the car made way for the designer. Today, this same spirit is evident in the styling of the Ypsilon Sport.

STUNNING FULVIA CONCEPT SET TO RECEIVE THE GREEN LIGHT

Fortunately for fans of Lancia’s proud competition heritage, this change in focus does not end there. Speculation has surrounded the image-building ‘niche’ product outlined in Marchionne’s plan, with many observers believing it to be a resurrection of the ‘Fulvietta’ concept which was first displayed at the Frankfurt IAA in September 2003. That particular car was based on a Fiat Barchetta platform and although major efforts were made to put the car into production, the plan ultimately fell through as a result of financial issues, coupled to problems being faced at the time by coachbuilder Maggiora (who were slated to build the car alongside the Barchetta).

It is known that some time after the pin was officially pulled on the Fulvia, Lancia submitted a modified proposal which saw the Fulvia going into production on either a modified Stilo spaceframe chassis, or alternatively, that of the new Grande Punto. Although these plans, too, fell through, it is plausible to expect that any future resurrection of the Fulvia project would be on the all-new 199 platform, as this should offer a greater ability to provide the levels of ride and handling demanded in today’s marketplace than the ageing (albeit still capable) Barchetta chassis. Whatever happens, it is certain that the principles which guided the original concept will remain – light weight, a focus on the driver, and above all, a pure relationship between driver and car uncorrupted by so-called ‘driver aids’.

It might have been a tough few years for the famous Turin carmaker, but as it approaches its centenary, the prospects for Lancia are looking up. In a world where styling is playing an increasing role in car buying trends, Lancia’s traditional blend of beauty, elegance, modernity and distinctiveness – evidenced by both the current range, as well as concepts such as the Stilnovo and Fulvia – is a priceless asset which offers much scope for development of the marque. With a rediscovery of its sporting genes as well, the future seems bright for one of motoring’s most noble names.

...................................................................
Lancia is diverting on a fresh new course in terms of promotion and brand identity under Fiat Auto. Ever since the 1990's, Lancia has played the lesser role within Fiat Auto's marketing strategy - hit hard by the parent company's financial troubles. The fact that development of new Fiat, Alfa Romeo and light commercial (LCV) models has taken precedence over expanding Lancia's (rather narrow) lineup has also marred Lancia's situation. Although the current model range is relatively youthful (the eldest model being the Thesis, displayed for the first time at the 2001 Geneva Motor Show and going on sale in mid-2002), this does not tell the full story, for when Sergio Marchionne took personal charge of Fiat Auto in February this year, Lancia had no new projects officially signed-off for production. Given the extensive lead times involved in developing new cars, this was not a promising sign for the 99-year-old marque. It is this fact which makes the recent industrial plan such a pleasant surprise, as it displays a clear recognition of the fundamental value of the Lancia brand to Fiat's future.

Lancia's neglect had started under Fiat CEO Paolo Canterella stewardship - the Italian always having little interest in the brand - while matters in fact got worse under Herbert Demel's brief tenure as the Austrian planned to kill off Lancia completely, a decision which was overruled at the time by the Fiat Group CEO, Sergio Marchionne. The runaway success of the latest Ypsilon model - which arrived two years ago - helped the brand to survive and 'tick over' during its wilderness years, while against the odds, sales starting to grind upwards. Marchionne let it be known that he valued the Lancia brand name, and once the dynamic Italian-Canadian assumed responsibility for the Auto Division, its importance seemed to be slightly more assured.

Marchionne's plan, presented in early August to the government and unions, includes 23 new models and 20 facelifts, which have either been confirmed or are yet to be announced for production between now and 2008. Three of these are surprising brand-new additions to the Lancia range and three are facelifts of existing Lancia models. This means that by the end of 2007 the entire Lancia product range (with the exception of the Thesis flagship) will have been newly launched or facelifted within a two-year period.

MARCHIONNE SETS A NEW DEVELOPMENT STRATEGY FOR LANCIA

Although Fiat has been fighting back, slashing losses and launching an array of new models, it is fair to say that the amount of resources allocated to the development of these new Lancias is still quite limited. As a result, Marchionne’s plan revolves around revitalising Lancia with a minimum of extra investment by deriving the new products from mainstream Fiats. It is believed that Marchionne has multiple goals with this new-model offensive – not only to boost Lancia’s performance across Europe (more than 80% of Lancias are currently sold in Italy), but to try to make use of underused capacity and avoid plant closures.

One of the highlights for Fiat Auto over the past couple of years has been Lancia’s revival in the sales charts. Spearheaded by the Ypsilon 'supermini' and Musa 'mini-MPV', Lancia’s sales have consistently improved year-on-year, proving that despite the lack of investment the brand itself is still strong and a worthwhile asset for Fiat to nurture and develop in coming years. Although developed on a shoestring budget of just 60 million euros, the Musa is a good example of the way in which the low-cost, high-return revival plan has been successfully implemented. Taking the Fiat Idea as a starting point, the design team found centrally-mounted instruments (as on the Ypsilon) already in place, while the exterior (especially in profile) offered, in the words of Marco Tencone (chief exterior designer on the Musa), “a lot that lent itself to ‘Lanciarisation’”. Whilst Idea sales are lagging slightly below expectations, the Musa has outperformed sales targets, selling nearly 20,000 units in the first six months of this year against a goal of 30,000 for the full year.

LANCIA'S FIRST SUV ON THE WAY

Following this success, the next product to undergo such ‘Lanciarisation’ is the forthcoming Fiat Sedici ‘crossover’. This announcement came as a particular surprise, as there had been no inkling of such a project prior to the presentation. The Fiat Sedici is expected to use 1.5 (99bhp) and 1.6 (107bhp) petrol engines developed by Suzuki, along with the new 120bhp 1.9 8V and 150bhp 16V Multijet diesels (already found in the Alfa 147, 159 and Fiat Croma) coupled to a six-speed manual or automatic gearbox. In a similar fashion to the Musa, the Lancia variant is expected to forego the smallest-capacity option, in this case the 1.5 petrol, in keeping with the brand’s more upmarket positioning.

This crossover is expected to debut in 2006, while also on the cards for the marque’s centenary next year is a facelift for the Ypsilon.

Although few details are known at this stage, it can be expected that it will share styling cues with the Musa facelift, at this stage pencilled in for 2007, given that the two share many basic design details (including identical headlamps) and the fact that this family likeness has been key in building Lancia’s brand image and equity. At the same time, a facelift for the full-size Phedra MPV will allow it to remain competitive in the face of forthcoming strong opposition, not only from Renault’s existing Grand Espace, but new market entrants including Mercedes-Benz (with its R-Class) and BMW (V5). Despite this, the Phedra V6 is soon to be discontinued in December.

LONG AWAITED NEW DELTA MODEL SET TO ARRIVE IN TWO YEARS

The big news for Lancia in 2007, however, will be the launch of the third-generation Delta, a car eagerly awaited by fans of the marque ever since the passing of the last generation in 1999. To share the platform and basic suspension layout of the 2006 Fiat Stilo (itself a development of the current Stilo’s CDH spaceframe chassis), it looks set to be built alongside it at the highly-automated Cassino plant under the supervision of Austrian engineering giant Magna Steyr, increasing viability and spreading risk. In-line with market trends, diesels are expected to figure prominently in the new car’s engine range, with the 1.9 Multijet in newly-launched 120bhp and 150bhp Euro 4 versions expected to account for a significant chunk of sales. The car is rumoured to overlap C- and D-segments (in the process creating a de facto replacement for the Lybra), and its design will combine elegant and stylish design cues with a sporting brief, in similar fashion to the widely-acclaimed 2003 Granturismo Stilnovo concept car. This return to sporting values reiterates a point outlined in no uncertain terms by the aggressively-detailed Ypsilon Sport concept car unveiled at Geneva this year.
