Lancia - 7 extraordinary stories / 7 storie straordinarie

As a prominent expression of the highest Italian automobile traditions, in its over 110 years of history the Lancia brand has had its share of dazzling moments of glory and disastrous falls.
Along with a review of the succession of Lancia models in time, many of which are included with exclusive photographs, this book offers an accurate analysis of all the events related to the brand, dedicating special attention to its most recent racing glory, exclusively commented by the famous sporting director Cesare Fiorio as well as the drivers Sandro Munari and Miki Biasion.

Brought to success by the great Vincenzo Lancia who died at the young age of 55, the Turin company was re-launched after World War II by his son, the engineer Gianni Lancia, with memorable models and victories in some of the world's most important races.
In gratitude, history has unjustly named him responsible for the company's crisis which, however, had other motivations. This is just one of the many novel-like events that dot the history of Lancia, a highly passionate brand, which has always been a topic of discussion.

Lancia Gamma Berlina & Coupé: the Story 1976 -1984

Designed to re-establish Lancia as a player in the executive car segment, the Gamma seemed to have it all to succeed, with its sophisticated engineering, elegant Pininfarina lines, and a storied brand with a long tradition of innovation and motorsport triumphs. Yet it failed, big time, garnering a reputation for unreliability that lingers on the model to this day.

Never a common sight on European roads, the Gamma has been largely forgotten, even by Lancia historians. Not anymore though, as former automobile designer Matteo Licata has, for the first time, written this in-depth homage to the Gamma, based on rigorous research on period documents and interviews with former Lancia employees.

Lancia Hyena Zagato : Una Delta all'ennesima potenza / The Ultimate Delta

The Hyena is a beautiful car, but one practically unknown to the general public. A car that could have repeated and even surpassed the commercial and sporting success of the Lancia Delta Integrale from which it was derived.
Unfortunatley just 24 examples were produced due to the debateable decision taken by the Fiat/Lancia directors of the time.

Following a rapid review of the evolution of the Lancia Delta over the year, this book, written by an enthusiastic collector, examines the difficult genesis of the Hyena, from the first steps with the publication of the very first (previously unpublished) sketches and numerous photos and then follows its development, engineering and production through to its presentation at the car shows and in brochures.

The book is completed by a comprehensive technical section, with the project list and the spare parts catalogue as well as an extensive photographic portrait of one particular example, N. 20.
Lastly, all 24 Lancia Hyenas are examined, with the intention of reconstructing their specifications, their destination and the country in which they are jealously conserved by the enthusiast and collectors who possess a precious example.

Lancia Thema - Berlina, Station Wagon e 8.32

Choć pojawiły się inne modele, Lancia Thema pozostaje ostatnim prawdziwym flagowym samochodem marki. Obok pierwszej Delty uznawana jest za najlepszy model ery Fiata.

Zaprojektowana przez Italdesign, Thema łączyła elegancki wygląd z silnym wizerunkiem, pozwalającym konkurować w segmencie zdominowanym przez marki zagraniczne, zwłaszcza niemieckie. Była to najbardziej wszechstronna duża Lancia: oferowana jako sedan, limuzyna i kombi, z silnikami benzynowymi i turbodieslami o czterech, sześciu i ośmiu cylindrach.
Najbardziej znaną wersją jest 8.32, tzw. "Thema-Ferrari", która od premiery budzi zachwyt wśród miłośników motoryzacji.

Książka przedstawia historię modelu i jego odmian, zawiera dane techniczne i cenne porady dotyczące renowacji. Zawiera również niepublikowany wywiad z Giorgetto Giugiaro.
