Lancia Delta

The Lancia Delta is one of the most emblematic models in Italian automotive history. Produced between 1979 and 1995, this compact car designed by Giorgetto Giugiaro left a lasting mark on Lancia's image, not least thanks to its outstanding success in rallying.

Launched in 1979, the Delta is an elegant, well-equipped compact car. It won the title of Car of the Year 1980 in Europe. But it was not until the second half of the '80s that the Delta became a legend, with the HF 4WD and then HF Integrale versions dominating the World Rally Championship.

With 6 consecutive manufacturers' titles in the WRC (1987 to 1992), the Delta became the most successful rally car in history. Today, the Integrale road versions are cult models.

Production ceased in 1995, well after the launch of the Lancia Delta II, in order to prolong the success of the sporty versions.
