Lancia debuted the new Ypsilon HF—the 280-hp fully electric road version that accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in just 5.6 seconds and delivers superior agility thanks to its limited-slip differential. Dedicated to the international press, the event even provided journalists with the chance to test drive the Hybrid HF line—the new version that brings the HF language to more affordable powertrains while preserving the legendary line’s style and recognizability.
Both new versions feature the brand-new HF logo—a contemporary and forward-looking take on the historic emblem. Symbols of Lancia’s heritage, the badge’s core elements—the HF acronym and the iconic elephant—have been simplified in both line and form, creating a new balance that conveys innovation, premiumness, and the Italian spirit, with a touch of eclecticism, all while respecting the unmistakable geometries of the Lancia brand. In particular, the colors come from the official logo of the 1966 Fulvia Coupé, while the slant of the letters is inspired by the Lancia Delta logo from the 1990s to express speed and radicality.
Lancia’s vision comes to life on the road with uncompromising performance, unexpected handling, and a track-inspired technical setup. In particular, the lowered suspension, the widened wheel track, and the segment’s lowest center of gravity ensure exceptional stability, while the steering precision and the refined suspension geometry provide the driver with more immediate and intuitive control. Rounding out the technical features, the Torsen differential combined with 345 Nm of torque—the highest in its class—ensures the car is ready to instantly and decisively take off in any situation.
The two new releases are already available for order: the hybrid Ypsilon HF Line is now in showrooms, while the 280-hp Ypsilon HF will debut on roads after summer.
