2026 Lancia Gamma

At the 1976 Geneva Motor Show, Lancia unveiled its new flagship, the Gamma. It was produced until 1984, and the latest information suggests that the Gamma will return in 2026.

Lancia has not released many details about the new Gamma. However, what we do know is that it will use the STLA Medium platform, one of the ones that will underpin almost every new Stellantis vehicle, including the next-generation Jeep Compass and possibly the Chrysler Airflow. This platform is compatible with combustion engines as well as electric ones. It is designed for front-wheel and all-wheel drive, and the size can vary. It supports 400-volt technology, and the range will reach up to 700 kilometers.

The new Gamma will be produced in Melfi, Italy, and will be the second of three models that the brand plans to launch in the next four years. Information about the powertrain is still unknown.

The old Gamma was available as a two-door coupe and fastback sedan, and was designed by Pininfarina. It was powered by a four-cylinder engine with front-wheel drive.
