Lancia Beta

The Lancia Beta is a major model in the brand's history, produced between 1972 and 1984. It marked an important transition for Lancia after its integration into the Fiat Group, adopting common technical bases while retaining a more refined positioning.

The Beta is distinguished by an extremely wide range, including several body styles: sedan, coupé, spider, HPE (shooting brake) and even a sporty version developed with Abarth.

With 366,020 units produced, it was a major commercial success for Lancia. It also served as the technical basis for several models, including the Lancia Trevi.
