The Lancia Ypsilon has no choice but to make a good impression at the 2025 Brussels Motor Show

The new Ypsilon has its work cut out for it, in addition symbolize the return of the brandit must also instill the new style. Built on the same platform as the Peugeot 208 and Opel Corsa from the Stellantis group, However, she has his own personality.

Thus, the front part inaugurates the new lighting signature and the rear with its beveled profile emphasizes the round lights. In profile, it is distinguished by a black quarter panel hiding the rear door handle. When it comes to looks, it’s a win, she doesn’t look like any other.

Inside too, the Ypsilon stands out with a unique dashboard and a sort of small “coffee table” at the central console. A detail that we owe thanks in particular to the partnership with the furniture designer Cassina. It is also a way to support its premium positioning.

Apart from its design, its presentation and its finishes, the Ypsilon has little room for maneuver. She must be content with a space with rear seats somewhat limitedwithout any particular attention apart from two USB-C sockets, a trunk whose volume is nothing extraordinary and mechanics already known in the group.

Thus, it uses the three-cylinder block 100 hp micro-hybrid in thermal and the 156 hp electromotor associated with a 51 kWh battery in electric allowing it a theoretical autonomy of 403 km.

On the other hand, we can only welcome the appearance of the HF version with a power of 280 hp, even if thermal enthusiasts will see no use in it. Therefore, she can count on a mechanical limited slip differential to prevent this cavalry from going up in smoke. The Alpine A290, less powerful and lacking this equipment, has cause for concern.

Absent from the last Paris Motor Show, the Ypsilon is indeed well marketed from €23,550 in gasoline while the electric version requires at least €34,800. Three finishing levels are in the catalog: Ypsilon, LX and Cassina.
