Lancia, once a rallying force, has seen its fortunes dwindle. Its current offering, the Ypsilon, while recently updated, lacks the excitement and diversity the brand once embodied. Rumors suggest a revival of iconic models, such as the Delta, to breathe new life into the brand.
The STLA Medium platform, shared by several Stellantis models, is a potential foundation for the new Delta. This would allow Lancia to leverage the platform’s benefits while maintaining its unique identity.
With a focus on electric vehicles, the Delta could be a key part of Lancia’s rejuvenation, combining heritage with modern technology.
The internet has been buzzing with speculation about a potential revival of the Lancia Delta. Inspired by these rumors, digital artist Theottle has created a concept rendering of what the new model might look like. Using the Peugeot 308 as a base, Theottle has given the car a fresh front end inspired by the smaller Ypsilon.
The new fascia features a prominent Lancia badge on the hood, a sporty front bumper with a large air intake, and a pair of vertical vents.
The rear end of the concept Delta also borrows design cues from the Ypsilon. The most striking feature is the pair of dual round taillights, which give the car a distinctive and retro-inspired look. The rear bumper is also sporty, with a diffuser and integrated exhaust tips.
While the Lancia Delta is still a few years away, Theottle’s rendering offers a tantalizing look of what the car might look like when it finally arrives. The concept is a bold and modern interpretation of the iconic Delta nameplate, and it is sure to generate excitement among Lancia enthusiasts.
