The March-bodied Lancia features three possible weather equipment and seating configurations. For journeys with the family, the Lancia can be configured as an open two-door, four-seater tourer. When the driver desires a more spirited trip, a tonneau can be put in place over the rear seats, converting into an open two-seat roadster. When the rainy weather threatens the Lancia's top could be raised covering only the front two seats.
This dashing tourer was offered for the sum of £450 ($2,267) when a new Jaguar SS One could be had for £395. The average American household earned $1,600 per year in 1934.
This March-bodied Lancia was already rare in its day and this example is one of only a handful known to have survived.
The Lancia Augusta was produced between 1933 and 1936. It was powered by a V4 engine that displaced 1196cc and offered 35 horsepower. The cars power was sent to the wheels via a four-speed manual gearbox. It was available as a four-door sedan or 2-door cabriolet, both riding on a 104.3 inch platform.
The August was Lancia's smaller sized vehicle. Also during this era, Lancia was producing the Astura, Belna, and Astora.
