The Lancia Augusta Cabriolet Pininfarina.

Vehicle Overview

The Lancia Augusta Cabriolet, a masterpiece of automotive engineering and design, boasts the renowned narrow-angle Lancia 1,100cc V4 engine—a powerhouse known for its impressive performance despite its compact size. This engine, celebrated for its potency, graced various smaller Lancia models, solidifying its place in the brand’s legacy. Far from ordinary, the Lancia Augusta was a trailblazer in its era, featuring innovative elements that set it apart. Its monocoque construction, independent sliding pillar front suspension, overhead cam V4 engine, and hydraulic brakes marked it as a symbol of advanced engineering. This exceptional vehicle not only excelled on the track but also earned the favor of prominent Italian racing drivers, with Tazio Nuvolari, a racing legend, choosing it as his personal transport for several years. Designed by the legendary Battista “Pinin” Farina in one of his early works, the Lancia Augusta Cabriolet showcases a factory-produced drop-head cabriolet that epitomizes style and sophistication. Equipped with wind-up windows and a clever spring-loaded hood, the convertible aspect adds a dynamic element to this classic beauty. The ingenious design allows for a swift erection of the hood in mere seconds, transforming it into a full 4-seat tourer in the summer. In the winter, with the hood and windows up, it rivals any saloon in terms of comfort and protection from the elements. Beyond its powerful engine and advanced features, the Lancia Augusta Cabriolet stands as a testament to the marriage of form and function, a timeless creation that encapsulates the spirit of a bygone era. With its racing pedigree and elegant design, this Lancia model remains a cherished relic of automotive history, celebrating the ingenuity and craftsmanship of its time.
