Car articles about Lancia Appia by year
The Lancia Appia Vignale Cabriolet may be less eye-catching than other 1950s special bodies, but the small open-top sports car is still a gem to drive. It benefits from the advanced Appia design and continuous model maintenance. It is actually a wonderful example of the time when Lancia was still Lancia. This driving report tells the story of the Lancia Appia model and the Vignale Cabriolet, showing the cars in many historical and current photos and also in the sales brochure from back then.
From 1953, Lancia produced the Appia saloon for people who disliked both characterless confection and extravagant otherness. With its simple bodywork, lively VR4 and good build quality, the Italian was certainly convincing, but also cost a thousand more than the significantly larger Opel Rekord. In 1960, test editors tried to find out whether the high price paid off for a seemingly small car. The original test report is accompanied by extensive historical images and sales material.
