Description
The Lancia Beta is a mid-range car that was produced by the Italian car manufacturer Lancia from 1972 to 1984. The car is named after the second letter of the Greek alphabet as a continuation of the naming convention Lancia used during its first years of existence. Initially, the Lancia Beta was only available as a four-door hatchback (Berlina). Later, other body variants were added: a two-door Beta Coupé, a three-door Beta HPE shooting brake, the Beta Spider convertible with targa roof and roll bar and the four-door Beta Trevi sedan
The Beta Coupé came onto the market in the spring of 1974. The design was by Piero Castagnero, who had also designed the Lancia Fulvia Coupé in the 1960s.
The Beta Coupé was based on a shortened floorpan from the Berlina and was powered by the 1. 6 and 1. 75-litre twin-cam engines of 109 and 120 hp respectively. These models were officially referred to as the 1600 and 1800. The equipment was upgraded compared to the sedan.
In 1975 the Beta Coupé received a minor facelift with a slightly modified hood and a black radiator grille with chrome strips. After the discontinuation of the Fulvia Coupé in 1976, the Beta Coupé was also equipped with the 1. 3-liter engine from the Berlina in order to continue to offer a coupé in the 1300 class.
The Lancia that we offer you here is one like the latter; a Lancia Beta Coupe with the 1300 engine.
