2007 Lancia Thesis Sport news, pictures, and information

The Paris Show also features a Lancia Thesis Sport that combines sportiness and elegance in a unique, exclusive manner. The version exhibited features a ‘b-colore' body (light grey and dark grey) customised wîth the logo of the 63rd Venice International Film Festival: the vehicle was part of the Lancia fleet made available to the organisation for ferrying film stars and directors to the festival.

Firstly, the vehicle exterior is graced by a very chic metallic grey body that further emphasises the shape of the Lancia flagship. This particular version is given an even sportier look by 18' alloys in an eye-catching spoked design.

The same look continues inside, in the form of a red Frau® leather trim wîth coordinated finish. This original Thesis Sport embodies the spirit of the Lancia flagship, a luxury saloon that attracts élite motorists wîth its style and cutting-edge technology. This specific §egmènt includes a select number of cars that have been chosen by the biggest manufacturers to showcase the cream of contemporary in-car technology.

The Thesis Sport is equipped wîth a powerful 2.4 Multijet 20 valve engine that, when combined wîth a five speed sequential self-adaptive automatic transmission, develops a power of 185 bhp at 4000 rpm and a torque of 330 Nm at 1750 rpm. This power unit can propel the car to a top speed of 222 km/h and accelerate it from 0-100 km/h in 9.7 seconds. The car on the Lancia stand naturally offers all the innate attributes of the Thesis model: an extremely long list of standard safety features (ABS wîth EBD, ESP wîth ASR, 8 airbags), a luxurious, roomy and protective passenger compartment containing equipment such as a sophisticated Connect Nav+ Infotelematic system, Bose Hi-Fi system, multizone automatic climate control system and Comfort front seats (ventilated, heated, adaptive wîth backrest/cushion massage) that represent the state-of-the-art as far as comfort and ergonomics are concerned. Other attractions include an antilift volume-sensing antitheft system wîth alarm and parking sensors.

Further proof of the Fiat 500 city car's outstanding success in the UK was revealed today with the news that the 100,000th example was sold here last month – just four and a half years since its launch. The passing of this significant milestone demonstrates beyond doubt that the Fiat 500 is still high on customer shortlists when it comes to choosing a new supermini. It follows on from April's official UK sales figures in which the 500 was placed inside the top 10 best sellers with 2,600 vehi...[Read more...]
