Lancia is teasing a new concept car it plans to unveil on April 15. No one knows what it is or what it could be. But based on the teaser image shared by the brand, it might just be a kind of future concept Stratos, the brand’s legendary sports/racing car. Whatever happens, Lanica needs it fast.

I thought brands like Chrysler and Mitsubishi had sad lineups. Lanica’s lineup prompts you to ask someone if they accept donations. They are currently only selling one model, a small city car It’s called Yplsion which is available as a two- or four-door hatchback. The brand has not really had a proper lineup for years, any one. For a while back, it sold relabeled a Chrysler like 300, which it It was called Thema and came with a V6 diesel engine. He was there too the Flavia, which was just a Chrysler 200 convertible.

If this concept is a new Stratos, inject some excitement into the brand. Between 1973 and 1978, only 492 units of the mid-engined road-going rally car were produced. It was the monstrosity of the car that brought the marque numerous rally victories. A few concept cars using this name have been shown over the years, but there is except in one case, it was never put back into production.

in 2010, a new Stratos appeared with the financial support of German billionaire Michael Stoschek. With a body designed by Pininfarina, it was rumored that 25 cars would be built. However, Ferrari objected to it because it needed a customer to build it to have a donor F430 can be used as a base for the car. Then Italian coachbuilder Manifattura Automobili Torino said they would make 25. This was in 2018, and not much has been heard since.

Based on the teaser image released by the brand, we can almost safely say that it is will show a Stratos. Considering what we can see in the teaser, the presented car clearly has a Stratos design theme, fthe round rear light is broken and a protruding rear bumper for a louvre-like rear window. ThThe brand also says to stay tuned for its “brand manifesto,” describes the company’s 10-year roadmap. If you’re a Lancia fan, keep your feet up so they can show something great, they really need it.
