Lancia Thema
Lancia announced recently that they’re going to launch in March 2011, during the Geneva Auto Show, a new large sized sedan called Thema, which will be the Lancia version of the latest Chrysler 300C model, which is built by the American constructor. Lancia Thema will borrow from the Chrysler 300C around 90% of the design elements, the main differences being the fact that the front grill will be replaced with something characteristic to Lancia.
There are no official data yet about the engines that will be used by the replacement of Lancia Thesis, but the latest informations seem to point towards a new diesel engine with 6 cylinders and 3.0L and 230HP. The other engines will be brought over from the 300C. Apparently Lancia believes that around 80% of the sales of the new Lancia Thema will be from the diesel version.
