Lancia Fulvia Coupé, 1965-67
In 1965 the Fulvia coupe had its first public appearance at the Turin Motor Show. Although the design was unique in appearance and efficiency, the performance was a bit tame.
The Coupé was the most successful Fulvia's model. As a matter of fact it has been produced continuously for more than ten years. The body design was made by the designer Piero Castagnero and structural engineer Aldo Castagno. The designers had to submit their project of a sporting car to rigid technical bonds: the use of Fulvia chassis and engine, a maximum overall length of 4,000 mm, 900 kg of weight and a cockpit configuration of 2+2 seats in order to carry small families. The result of their work was a nice and compact car which reached immediately customer success although the great price of sale. Front track is 1300mm, rear track is 1280 mm, wheelbase is 2330mm, shortened by 150mm from the size of saloon. To reach the weight limit the bonnet, the boot and the doors were in light aluminum alloy. The Coupé was the first Italian car whose project had to come up to strictly safety rules in order to preserve passengers.

The evolution of this car was guided by racing needs. Reaching success in Rally Championship was a primary goal of Lancia management, so in spite of strained circumstances the Racing Division had the possibility to develop the car. The normal production benefit by sporting technical innovation so the second series had a 5 speed gearbox, a better braking system (SuperDuplex) and a more reliable lighting plant. But for reason of cost all aluminum parts of the body were substituted by steel ones and a new simpler radiator grill was adopted. The Fulvia Coupé is still one of the most loved car in Italy.
