Chronology
Predecessor Autobianchi Y10

The Lancia Ypsilon is a supermini (B-segment) manufactured and marketed by Lancia, currently in its fourth generation and as of 2024, the marque's only model. The Ypsilon was released in 1995, as a larger and more expensive replacement to the Y10. Between 1995 and 2005, Lancia produced more than 870,000 Ypsilons in the Melfi plant in the Potenza region. [1]

Contents

The third generation Ypsilon, sharing its platform with the Fiat 500, was marketed also as the Chrysler Ypsilon in the United Kingdom, Ireland and Japan. Fiat Group discontinued the Chrysler variant in 2017, having marketed 2,000 units in 2014. [2] It is also no longer sold in Japan, with the discontinuation of both the Lancia Voyager and Lancia Thema branding on Chrysler-built vehicles in 2015. It is currently only available in the Italian market.

Despite relative obscurity worldwide and in Europe, the Lancia Ypsilon is a popular offering in Italy. Between 1995 and 2019, Lancia sold over 1.6 million Y and Ypsilon examples in Italy alone. [3] In 2023, despite its age, it has the first highest market share in the B-segment in the country. [4]

The Lancia Ypsilon or Y (Type 840) was designed by Enrico Fumia in 1992. [6] It was developed over 24 months at a cost of around 400 billion Italian lira [7] and was presented in Rome in January 1996. [8] The arches defined the car, repeating themselves on all sides of the car. The length is 3.72 m, 33 cm longer than the Y10. The Lancia Y was built on the same platform of the Fiat Punto series 176 (the same platform as the Barchetta), with a shortened wheelbase and an all-independent suspension setup: MacPherson struts at the front, trailing arms at the rear.

The main features of the Lancia Y include five seats, a soft plastic dashboard, and accessories, and options, including body colors in 100 shades from the Lancia Kaleidoscope catalog. Another design property that distinguished the Y was the instrument cluster in the center of the dashboard, which was adopted by the Musa and Ypsilon later in 2003.

Initially, the range featured three trim levels: LE, LS, and LX. A Cosmopolitan special edition of 600 pieces was later added. It was created through collaboration with the magazine, based on the LX trim. It was sold in the European market outside of Italy.[ citation needed ]

Air conditioning was standard on the LX and an option on the LS. The LX also offered an enhanced instrument cluster with a rev counter and a larger display that also displayed the outside temperature.[ citation needed ]

The engines were part of the FIRE series that debuted in the Y10 in 1985 and later was used in other Fiat and Lancia vehicles. They were available in displacements of 1,108 and 1,242cc with eight valves in an overhead camshaft arrangement. The top-of-the-line 1.4 12 valve "Pratola Serra" engine with 59 kW (80 PS) was carried over from the Fiat Bravo/Brava. [9] Given the limited success of the Pratola Serra engine, it was soon replaced by the first so-called SuperFIRE engine, featuring four valves per cylinder and multipoint fuel injection. The Lancia Y was the first car to receive this evolution of the FIRE. [10]

The 1,242cc SuperFIRE developed 63 kW (86 PS) at 6,000 rpm and a maximum torque of 113 Nm at 4,500 rpm. This engine remains available on the 2013 Lancia Ypsilon, 2013 Ford Ka, and the Fiat 500.

The Elefantino Rosso (English: Tiny Red Elephant, which was the symbol of the historic Lancia HF sports cars that won numerous rally competitions) is the sports version of the Lancia Y and the sister car to the Fiat Punto Sporting. It features an interior in grey Alcantara, seats also in grey Alcantara and accentuated with dark grey fabric insets that echo the exterior color of the car, a center console, 15" wheels and rear-view mirrors in a titanium look, the steering wheel and gearshift in grey leather with red stitching, air conditioning, a shorter gearbox ratio for quicker acceleration from 0–100 km/h and in 5th gear, a lowered and stiffened suspension with bigger roll bars and more direct power steering. It reached a top speed of 177 km/h and was the only car in the lineup to receive 15" wheels with 195/50R15 tires. For those who desired a more discreet, comfortable, and luxurious ride, the LX (with an Alcantara and walnut veneer interior) and LS were also available with SuperFIRE. They were able to reach the same top speed as the "Pratola Serra" versions. The 1.2 8V was available with an automatic ECVT transmission.

Lancia had pulled out of RHD markets two years prior to the Y's launch. Thus, no RHD version was developed.

The Italian magazine Quattroruote test drove the "Ypsilon 16V LX" beyond its usual city use and praised its excellent power reserves while offering the comforts of a car worthy of a higher price. The model was an immediate success selling over 42,000 units in the first two months. [11]

2000–2003

In October 2000, the exterior and interior were restyled. The external changes included a new, larger grille, new bumpers, new taillights, new wheel cover designs, new fog lights. The side moldings of the car became much smoother and body-colored. The most significant internal change was the headrests (instead of drilled solids) and new seats and new steering wheel (similar to that of the Lancia Lybra). The material was no longer available with "soft touch", reflective security was removed from the doors, the climate control button was replaced with a lever, and the instrument panel was made more readable and modern, especially in the use of the LED display. The length of the car increased slightly from 3.72 metres to 3.74 metres.

The LX and Red Elephant versions, which cost €15,060 list,[ clarification needed ] came with the standard including driver and passenger airbags, air conditioning, ABS, power steering, Blaupunkt radio/navigation system with 6 speakers, split rear seat with headrests, the Alcantara interior, outdoor temperature display, electrically operated door mirrors painted in body color, the helm station and instrument panel were red instead of green, central locking with remote control, power windows, adjustable seat and steering wheel, leather interior with red stitching on the Red Elephant, fog lamps and alloy wheels with 185/60 R 14 tires for the LX and 195/50 R15 for the Red Elephant.

The following years were marketed by other special versions: DoDo, [12] Vanity and Unica. 16v versions reduce their output of 6 PS (4 kW) due to new Euro 3 pollution standards. Emissions were reduced with a more linear delivery, while maintaining, and sometimes even increasing, consumption.

Lancia reduced power from 60 PS on the 1242 cc, due to the addition of the sequential multipoint fuel injection system, costing power.

It also removed the 55 PS (40 kW; 54 hp) engine 1108 option, as it had not yet been adapted to the new Euro 3 directive, leaving the 60 PS (44 kW; 59 hp) 1.2 8v and 1.2 16v 80 PS (59 kW; 79 hp). [13]

In September 2003, after nearly nine years of career and just above 804,600 units sold, [14] its successor, the Lancia Ypsilon debuted, replacing it completely the following year.

2003–2006

The Ypsilon (Type 843) was Introduced in 2003 to access the Lancia range. It was designed to meet the needs of a young audience, and over time found sales, especially to females.[ citation needed ] It became the best-selling car of the Lancia range with an annual production of about 60,000 units. It was initially assembled at the Fiat plant in Melfi. In June 2005 production was moved to Sicily at the plant in Termini Imerese Palermo. The car uses a three-door body about 3.78 meters long, with the design inspired by the historic Lancia Ardea. [18]

The front is characterized by a large chrome grille with lobes at the top. The lighting is placed at the ends of the front arch. The bumpers are characterized by the presence of an unpainted longitudinal fascia applied above the air intakes in which the fog lamps (in the top versions) are located at either end. A prominent rib runs along the sides. The tail has vertically oriented headlamps that culminate in the bumper and are integrated into the fenders. The rear tailgate has a small size that limits visibility, embellished by chromed fascia above the license plate.

The frame used a shortened wheelbase version of the B platform debuted with the Fiat Punto (188) and adopted also by the Fiat Idea and Lancia Musa. The engine is transverse front-mounted, with front-wheel drive. The front independent suspensions are MacPherson struts with stabilizer bar, with steel arms, while at the rear there is a semi-independent torsion beam suspension. The braking system makes use of ventilated discs at the front while classic drums are available at the rear, only for the Sport Momo Design versions the company has made available the four-disc braking system with stiffened set-up and suspension. All versions included Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) with Electronic Brake Distribution (EBD) and an electric power steering system that stiffens gradually, but among the options are combined electronic stability control and traction.

The interior is covered with plastic inserts on door panels and instrument panel is covered with AIRtex fabric, leather or Alcantara depending on the model. Two-tone upholstery and plastic inserts mimic aluminium. The upholstery is available in four different materials: "Glamour", AIRtex, alcantara, and leather. It offers large storage space in front of the driver and passenger. The air conditioning and radio controls were located in the central area, including the optional navigation system.

2006–2010

In Autumn 2006 the Ypsilon received a touch-up that affected the engines and internals. It had a new front grille, more rounded bumpers with enlarged air intakes, and ice-effect rear light clusters. There are five versions: Argento, Passion, Oro Bianco, Oro Giallo e Platino. New fabrics for the seats came with new combinations of colours, and the dashboard trim is either lacquered silver or dark gray. The car has a new 1.3 Multijet 16v engine of 75, 90, or 105 horses. It also offered Blue&Me hands-free kit (Bluetooth with USB port), new colours, and new wheels.

The new Ypsilon can be equipped with Electronic Stability Control and hill holder for an extra charge, and has a grip of 0.93 g, although the roll is accentuated due to the soft suspension calibration. The shift lever is in a raised position and the rear seats come with split and sliding available in two versions (3 or 2 seats). The 2008 model introduced a DPF particulate filter as standard on all diesel engines except the 105 horsepower 1.3 Multijet diesel with the automated manual transmission D.F.N. (Dolce Far Niente).

2010–2011

In 2010, the exterior mirrors increased in size and darkened headlamps appeared. In 2011 Lancia introduced the final version called Ypsilon Unyca.

Production of the second generation Lancia Ypsilon ended on 23 November 2011 because Fiat Group closed the Termini Imerese factory where the Ypsilon was assembled. [19] The third generation of Lancia Ypsilon was produced at Tychy in Poland.

The Ypsilon was produced in two body colours version (called B-colore), which recalls Lancia tradition. The best-selling Ypsilons were the Passion, the Momo Design [20] and Sport Momo Design [21] characterized by the double body-colour, distinguished between the top (side mirrors, roof and rear hatch) and the rest of the fairing, as well as some sporty details (alloy wheels, interior). It derives directly from a concept called Ypsilon Sport, [22] presented at the Geneva Motor Show in 2005 and developed in collaboration with Zagato Design Centre. [23] It differs from the concept version by its 1.4 Fire 95 PS gasoline and 1.3 Multijet diesel engines with 75, 90 and 105 PS, four-disc braking system with lowered suspension, tires and some "sporty" design features such as burnished and diamond wheels of Sport design, burnished chrome trim, and leather and Alcantara interiors by Momo Design.

The third generation was introduced at the Geneva Motor Show in 2011.

The first drawings of Type 846 were developed in late 2006 and early 2007 by the Lancia Style Centre, directed by Alberto Dilillo, [29] before the Fiat/Chrysler alliance. The final model included only a few changes from the original, especially in the grille that recalls the style of most Chrysler models, with horizontal slats replacing the two lobes with vertical slats. As of 2023, it was the sole model available in Lancia's range.

The third series of Ypsilon adopted a five-door body with rear door handles recessed into the door's trailing edge.

The third generation shares the Fiat Mini platform with the Fiat 500 and Panda. Production was moved to Fiat's Tychy plant, [30] reaching 100,000 units per year at full capacity. The front suspension continued with independent wheel MacPherson struts at the front and the semi-independent torsion beam with a stabilizer bar at the rear.

The Ypsilon Type 846 received investment of 500,000,000 [31] (150 for development, 40 for the industrial structure and the remainder for production). The body is 3.84 meters long with a wheelbase of 2.39 meters. The cabin is approved for 5 seats. At the launch up to 600 possible customization combinations with 16 exterior colors (including 4 Bi-color version). [32]

Accessories included an automatic parking system, marketed as Magic Parking, bi-xenon headlights and LED rear lights in addition to available automatic Start & Stop.

All models were equipped with standard four airbags and stability and traction control (ESP and ASR) with Hill Holder, and ABS with EBD. European versions included Silver, Gold intermediate, and Platinum option packages. Type 846 continued to feature center-dash instrumentation.

Type 846 included a right-hand-drive variant for the UK and Ireland, where it was sold as the Chrysler Ypsilon. [33] It is sold in Morocco and Israel through the Fiat dealer network. In 2012 it began selling in Japan under the Chrysler brand at Yanase Co., Ltd. Japanese dealerships. It isn't exported to the US in order to avoid competition with the Fiat 500, [34] which is produced at Chrysler's Toluca plant in Mexico.

At the 2011 Frankfurt Motor Show, Lancia debuted Ypsilon Diamond concept cars, [35] which anticipated the release of a luxury model. The Diamond features two-tone paint with a top layer called "eco-chrome" covering pillars, roof, hood, and mirrors. The lower part of the body is painted in Chiffon Blanc (a shimmering white). The interior is fully lined in leather and Alcantara with two-tone seats covered in Galuchat black bronze leather. Head restraints display the Y logo. The outside of the seats, dashboard and some door details are covered with Nubuck light-colored leather with shift knob made of transparent acrylic to get the diamond effect. The Ypsilon Diamond has remained a concept car only.

At the Bologna Motor Show in December 2011 Lancia presented the Ypsilon Black&Red, [36] with special equipment proposed for young buyers, including special paint and hi-fi audio. Offered in 4 paint styles (Rosso Argilla, Nero Vulcano, Rosso Fiamma, and the bi-color Rosso Argilla with roof and hood in Nero Vulcano) the interior offers the same color as the body with alternation of black and red. The Ypsilon Black&Red is sold in most markets (including UK and Ireland [37] ) with 1.2 Fire petrol engine, 0.9 TwinAir Turbo and 1.3 Multijet diesel.

Engines

The engine range consists of the 1.2L eight-valve Fire petrol capable of 69 PS (51 kW; 68 hp), already present on the previous version and coupled to a 5-speed manual gearbox. A new option is the 0.9 L TwinAir two-cylinder with turbocharger capable of 85 PS (63 kW; 84 hp) and with Multiair. The 0.9 L TwinAir has emissions of 99 g/km of CO2 in the version with 5-speed manual transmission while the version with a DFN (Dolce Far Niente) automatic 5-speed transmission has emissions down to 97 g/km of CO2. The Ypsilon 0.9 L TwinAir declares consumption between 23.8 and 24.4 km/L. The diesel engine is the classic 1.3 L Multijet 16 valve 95 PS (70 kW; 94 hp) with a DPF capable of emitting 99 g/km of CO2 and is mated to a 5-speed manual transmission. Lancia Ypsilon 1.3 Multijet states for the consumption of 26.3 km/L.

Premiered at Frankfurt International Salon, the new Ypsilon brings a redesigned front end with a different lower bumper, featuring a horizontal bar, and new, wider, grille. Available will be two new colours: Blu di Blu, a classic Lancia tone, and Ivory Chic aimed at modern trends. All engines meet Euro 6 emission standards with Ecochic versions including LPG or methane fuelled. [38] Inside, the UConnect infotainment system with a 5-inch LCD touch screen debuts, while the basic versions introduce a new DAB radio. New seat covers also make their debut. In September 2018 the engines were re-homologated according to Euro 6D-Temp regulations in the new WLTP cycle. The 1.3 Multijet diesel engine goes out of production following low sales.

Ypsilon EcoChic Hybrid

In March 2020 Lancia introduces the Ypsilon EcoChic Hybrid powered by the GSE FireFly 1.0-liter, three-cylinder gasoline engine with an output of 70 metric horsepower (51 kW; 69 hp), coupled to a 12-volt BSG (belt-integrated starter generator) electric motor.

The 3.6 kW (5 hp) electric motor draws power from a small 0.13 kWh lithium battery and the vehicle should reduce fuel consumption and emission by as much as 24 percent when compared to its non-hybrid counterpart. The Ypsilon Hybrid has a new 6-speed manual transmission and is homologated Euro 6D-Final. [39]

The fourth-generation Ypsilon is the first new model to be produced by Lancia since 2011 and the first electric model from Lancia. It was revealed in a set of images on 2 February 2024, with more details released on 14 February 2024 at Lancia's headquarters in Milan. [43] [44] It is based on the CMP / eCMP platform, sharing multiple parts with the Peugeot 208 II and the Opel Corsa F. [45]

The Ypsilon is the first Lancia production vehicle to adopt their Pu+Ra Design language ('Pu+Ra' is a combination of ‘pure’ and ‘radical’) and the brand's new logo, which were both previewed from the Pu+Ra HPE concept car in 2023. The Ypsilon features an illuminated version of the historic front grille with three light rays, round headlights and taillights that both feature a letter Y motif, a Lancia badge on the C-Pillar and the Ypsilon badge on the rear hatch, having handwritten characters inspired by historic Lancia models. [45] [46] The ICE models are distinguished from the electric models, with four additional cooling intakes on the front fascia (which are blanked out on the electric model) and a single exhaust pipe on the rear diffuser. [47]

The Ypsilon is the first Lancia model to debut with S.A.L.A. (Sound Air Light Augmentation) infotainment system with virtual assissant, it has a multifunctional "tavolino" table with a wireless charging pad and a leather panel embossed with the Cassina special edition logo first seen in a production vehicle, and the only car in its segment to be equipped Level 2 Autonomous Driving safety package. [46]

The fourth-generation Ypsilon will mark the expansion of the Lancia brand in Europe. The brand will be reintroduced in Belgium, Netherlands, France and Spain in 2024, followed by Germany in 2025. These countries are chosen in consideration of the popularity of Italian products, and the popularity of B-segment vehicles. [46]

Ypsilon Edizione Limitata Cassina

The Lancia Ypsilon Edizione Limitata Cassina is a limited production version of the Ypsilon codeveloped between Lancia and Italian high-end furniture manufacturer Cassina S.p.A.. Production of the model is capped at 1,906 units, the amount referencing Lancia's foundation in 1906. [48]

Ypsilon HF

In May 2024, the Ypsilon HF (HF stands for 'High Fidelity') was revealed, a high-performance version of the regular Ypsilon. The HF model has a front-mounted electric motor producing 240 PS (177 kW; 237 hp), a lower suspension, a widen wheel track and sportier exterior styling. A scheduled market launch is set to commence in May 2025. [49] [50]

Rally 4 HF

On 27 May 2024, this new version of the race in the Rally4 championship was revealed to the public. During the presentation, Carlos Tavares, the CEO of Stellantis talks about the beginning of Lancia's return to rally competitions, particularly in the WRC. However, Tavares has ruled out the creation of an official team at the moment, leaving the initiative to private teams. A marketing and brand relaunch operation, but with a limited investment, as private teams will also take advantage of the components and work experience gained for the Peugeot 208 Rally4 and the Opel Corsa Rally4. [51] The livery is reminiscent of the famous Martini Racing colours, while the HF branding is highlighted throughout the car's livery. [52] [53] This version will be powered by 1.2-litre turbocharged three-cylinder engine with 212 hp. [54] [55]

As of July 2024, the first tests of the Ypsilon HF Rally4 took place in the south of France, precisely in Mazamet in Occitania, not far from Carcassonne. The car was tested on asphalt by Andrea Crugnola and on dirt by Leo Rossel. [56] On 16 July 2024, the two-time world rally Lancia champion Miki Biasion also carried out a special test with the car. [57] On 17 July 2024, Lancia has appointed Eugenio Franzetti as Director of Lancia Corse HF. [58] On 23 September 2024, Carlos Tavares, Stellantis CEO, tested the new Lancia Ypsilon Rally4 HF on the Balocco track. [59] [60]

Campionato Italiano Rally 2025 – Trofeo Lancia Rally

In 2025, the Ypsilon Rally 4 HF will mark the return of the Lancia brand to the Italian Rally Championship and will award the Lancia Rally Trophy, which will allow the winner to participate with the official Lancia Corse HF team in the 2026 European Rally Championship with the Ypsilon Rally 4 HF. [61] The Lancia Rally Trophy is made up of 6 races within the Italian championship with three categories: Junior (up to 25 years old), Master (from 25 to 35 years old), Expert (over 35 years old) and the winner is awarded a prize pool of 300,000 euros. [62] Lancia has made official that Sparco will be its technical partner for both driver and car equipment. [63] [64]
