The model is called Lancia Ypsilon 2024
Stellantis has unveiled a new Lancia car called the Lancia Ypsilon 2024. Lancia has been selling the Ypsilon in Europe since 2011, so it is long outdated. The new generation model has been completely redesigned and is very different from its predecessor.
This is also Lancia's first electric car, although mild hybrid versions with petrol engines will follow. The subcompact hatchback uses the same platform as the Peugeot 208/e-208, but has a completely different body and interior. Lancia said the headlights and taillights resemble those of the iconic rally car.
Inside, there are two 10.25-inch diagonal screens, familiar to modern cars, and a number of physical buttons for quick access to some climate control controls. Lancia has added a wireless charging pad, three USB-C ports, and smartphone integration with Android Auto and Apple CarPlay. The city car also features a special audio system, ambient lighting and a special air conditioning filter that removes 99 percent of harmful particles.
The electric version of the 2024 Lancia Ypsilon is powered by a 154 hp engine. with a torque of 260 N·m, which corresponds to the Peugeot e-208. It uses an identical battery with a capacity of 51 kW·h, which is enough for a range of up to 403 km in the combined WLTP cycle. This combination of electric motor and battery is also found in another related product Stellantis — Opel e-Corsa.
The electric model weighs 1,584 kilograms, but subsequent versions with a hybrid powertrain will be lighter. The battery can be charged from 20 to 80% in 24 minutes.
