Lancia Ypsilon Awarded the Design Trophy at the Trophées de l’Automobile Magazine

• The Lancia Ypsilon has won the Design Trophy during the Trophées de l’Automobile Magazine ceremony.
• The trophy was presented to Emanuele Tomassorri, Lancia’s exterior designer.
• This is yet another recognition for Lancia in France following its revival in 2024. The Italian brand had already been awarded for the design of the Ypsilon and, at the prestigious Chantilly Arts & Elegance competition, with the Lancia Pu+Ra HPE.
• The first model of Lancia’s new era marks the brand’s return to France, where 25 new showrooms and 80 service points will be operational by 2025.

Since its foundation, Lancia has always left its mark on automotive history through the elegance and innovation of its models. Both in racing and on the road, the Italian brand has collected numerous accolades, and its revival in France continues this tradition.

During the Trophées de l’Automobile Magazine, the new Lancia Ypsilon was honored with the Design Trophy, recognizing its refined aesthetics and bold design.

Designed, developed, and styled at the Centro Sile Lancia in Turin, the new Lancia Ypsilon is the result of the meticulous work of its designers. Its unique design pays homage to the brand’s iconic heritage, blending classic elements inspired by historic models like the Aurelia and Flaminia with modern touches derived from the legendary Stratos and Delta. The attention to detail and stylistic innovation makes the Ypsilon a flagship model in Lancia’s renewal.

The front light signature, featuring a modern reinterpretation of the Lancia calice, along with the rear lights inspired by the Stratos, pay homage to the brand’s heritage.

The Ypsilon’s interior has been designed with the same meticulous attention to detail. Italian design is enhanced by refined materials as well as distinctive elements such as the “tavolino,” a unique hallmark of Lancia’s new cabin.

The Design Trophy was presented to Emanuele Tomassorri, Lancia Ypsilon’s exterior designer, during the ceremony held in Paris. This recognition reaffirms Lancia’s status as a benchmark in automotive design, continuing a tradition where every detail matters.

With the opening of the first Casa Lancia in 2024 and the expansion of its distribution network in France—set to reach 25 Casa Lancia locations and 80 service points—Lancia continues to write a new chapter in its history, keeping elegance and innovation at the heart of its DNA.
