Car articles about Lancia Rally 037 by year
Surprisingly, the racing colors of Martini & Rossi are back on all screens in the 2014 F1 season with Williams, a good reason to look back and trace the history of Martini Racing's involvement in racing. This article details the Italian drinks manufacturer's involvement over 45 years and features Martini cars in over 50 images.
At the end of 1981, Lancia presented the new Group B rally car 037 Rally, followed a few months later by the presentation of the 200-strong road version. Like the competition, the Italian car manufacturer had also developed an uncompromising racing car, except that the 037 only had driven rear wheels. Nevertheless, the car won the brand title in the 1983 World Rally Championship and was the last rear-wheel drive car to do so. This driving report is primarily about the road-going version, which was hardly any less spectacular technically or visually than the racing version.
Like most rally cars from Turin, the rear-wheel drive mid-engined coupé also made sporting history. The Lancia Rally 037 - the number stands for an internal development code - is the successor to the glorious Stratos, which brought the Italians three world rally championships and four prestigious victories at the Monte Carlo Rally. The 037 was able to convincingly build on this success, and the 200 homologation versions built for the road are sought-after collectors' cars today, even though they were not so easy to sell at the time. This article describes the 037 in detail, supported by many pictures from then and now.
