Lancia Ypsilon puts on its sporty attire

Following the launch of the Ypsilon, Lancia's first and only model, the lineup has been expanded with two trim levels and a sportier engine. This exclusive model is now offered in micro-hybrid and electric versions. The former features a 48V three-cylinder mild-hybrid engine, developing 110 hp, while the latter reaches 156 hp and features a 54 kW battery, providing a range of 425 kilometers.

Now on sale, the Ypsilon HF, with a 280 hp electric motor, represents the return of a legendary acronym in the brand's history and its racing DNA, but in line with new mobility trends. This version has been equipped with more efficient Alcon brakes and a Torsen differential to improve its handling. The result is an electric car with the spirit that made Lancia a benchmark among racing models.

But Lancia's sporty connection doesn't end with this new version; New trim levels are also on sale: HF Line and HF. They join the existing Ypsilon and LX trim levels and offer features such as aluminum pedals, 17-inch wheels, a wireless charger, an exclusive steering wheel design, sportier seats, and an electric blue dashboard in the case of the HF Line.

New front bumpers with the HF logo, 18-inch wheels, a new rear diffuser, a 20-millimeter lowered suspension, and a 30-millimeter increase in track width in the HF model range are also available.

The Italian brand thus completes its lineup, awaiting the next model that will expand Lancia's presence in other segments. The revival is happening gradually, advancing and building on the concepts that have already made it a legendary brand. The design seeks to differentiate itself from other options on the market with its own language, modern yet connected to its most glorious era. It's about reclaiming the past with an eye to the future. 

Prices for this new sporty version of Lancia are: the HF Line trim level, available in the mild hybrid version for 27,200 euros, and the electric version for 37,500 euros. The HF trim level is available only in the more powerful electric version for 45,500 euros.
