Engineering & driving character:

The Fulvia stands apart thanks to its advanced and unconventional engineering. Its narrow-angle V4 engine is mounted far forward and paired with a transaxle layout, resulting in excellent balance and precise handling characteristics. The four-wheel disc brakes, independent front suspension, and lightweight construction, deliver a refined yet highly engaging driving experience. This is a true pre-Fiat Lancia design, it reflects a level of engineering sophistication and attention to detail that is immediately evident—particularly in the engine bay and mechanical layout.

Finished in a rare brown exterior, the car has a subtle and understated presence while it stands out from the crowd.

The car retains its original chrome bumpers and correct factory-style wheels, fitted with Vredestein Sprint Classic tires—an indication of an owner who values correct specification and proper upkeep.

Interior:

The light, almost white original seats are a standout feature of this vehicle. They have been professionally retrimmed, and their color is unblemished. The interior is complemented by the original steering wheel and the door cards, which have been retrimmed in Bentley Barley leather. The emerald green carpet provides a beautiful color in the interior, giving this Lancia a refined and elegant character while maintaining a strong sense of originality.
