LANCIA DELTA EVO GROUP A (Replica)

With wider wings, a completely redesigned bonnet and a rear hatch fitted with a spoiler, this is the Lancia Delta integrale in its extreme 'Evoluzione' version.

The wheel arches have been increased by 54 mm at the front and 60 mm at the rear, and the engine now develops almost 210 bhp at 5,750 rpm! This was the miracle recipe that enabled Lancia to win the World Rally Championship in 1992 and set an unprecedented record of 10 victories in the event.
