2024 Lancia Ypsilon Cassina premiered

Three weeks ago, Lancia announced the premiere of the limited edition Ypsilon Cassina, which will be produced in 1906 units, and the number of units represents the year the Italian manufacturer was founded.

Lancia Ypsilon took several design elements from the Pu+Ra HPE concept, including a front fascia, Stratos-inspired taillights, front spoiler-mounted headlights and some glossy black details. It is 4.08 meters long, 1.76 meters wide and 1.44 meters high, and weighs 1,584 kilograms.

“Lancia is starting from the beginning, from what we know best. Italy is the country where this brand was born 117 years ago and to which it owes much of its success. We start with the Ypsilon, a record-breaking city car that wrote the history of the B segment in Italy,” said the director brand Luca Napolitano.

The interior of the new Ypsilon is upholstered in dark blue leather and fabric and was made in cooperation with the Cassino company. It is equipped with the multimedia system SALA (Sound Air Light Augmentation), a fully digital instrument panel integrated into a unique module together with a two 10.24-inch multimedia screens, parking assistance system, second-level autonomous driving technology, as well as wireless systems Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.

When it comes to the powertrain, the Ypsilon Cassina is powered by an electric motor with 156 hp (116 kW), and thanks to a 51 kWh battery, it has a range of 403 kilometers on a single charge.

Speaking of the price, the Lancia Ypsilon Cassina costs 39,999 euros, and customers will also receive a home Easy Wallbox charger and a warranty of three years or 30,000 kilometers.

2024 Lancia Ypsilon

After offering only one model for years, the Italian manufacturer Lancia will present a special limited edition, the Ypsilon Cassina. It is a car that will be produced in 1906 units, and will be offered as a hybrid and fully electric. It will be premiered on February 14th.

In the released teasers, we saw that the new Lancia Ypsilon took several design elements from the Pu+Ra HPE concept, including a front fascia, Stratos-inspired taillights, front spoiler-mounted headlights and some glossy black details.

The interior of the new Ypsilon is upholstered in dark blue leather and fabric and was made in cooperation with the Cassino company. It is equipped with the multimedia system SALA (Sound Air Light Augmentation), a fully digital instrument panel integrated into a unique module together with a multimedia screen.

When it comes to the powertrain, there isn’t much information. Given that it is built on the architecture of the Peugeot 208 and Opel Corsa, it will most likely have a 54 kWh battery and a 156 hp (116 kW) electric motor. Also, it will have a range of 403 kilometers on a single charge.

The collection of 230 cars was hidden for 40 years

A large collection of classic cars from a professional dealer of rare and special cars from the 1960s was recently discovered. It contains 230 cars that the owner has been collecting for four decades.

It all started in the 80s of the last century when Palmen bought a yellow Lancia B20. After that, the collection was expanded with Italian models from Alfa Romeo, Lancia, Maserati and Ferrari, as well as German brands BMW, Mercedes and NSU. Of course, there are also British representatives: Jaguar, Aston Martin and Rolls-Royce, as well as American Chevrolet, Cadillac and Ford. The French Facel Vega is also part of the collection. The collection also includes the brands Tatra, Monica, Moretti, Matra, Alvis, Imperia and Villard.

Cars were stored in one church and two warehouses. All are well preserved and are proof of Palmen’s refined taste and impressive knowledge of rare and special cars.

The owner rarely showed his collection so it became one of the best kept “secret collections” in Europe. He kept the cars in original condition, and maintained them himself and started them regularly. Unfortunately, due to the owner’s age and other circumstances, the collection will be sold.

The auction will take place in May and the cars are currently stored in a facility in Dordrecht.
