Lancia Stratos - Race Cars (1973 to 1978)

The Lancia Stratos HF Rally, a striking design by Bertone and Lancia, emerged in 1973 as a fierce competitor in the World Rally Championship. This revolutionary car boasted a sleek, wedge-shaped fiberglass body with a short wheelbase and flared wheel arches for aggressive rally performance. Inside, the Stratos was all business: a roll cage, Sparco racing seats, and a minimalist dashboard focused on the essentials. Its independent suspension and tuned anti-roll bars allowed for quick changes between gravel, mud, and asphalt, making it a versatile champion. Powered by a mid-mounted 2.4L Ferrari Dino V6, producing 280hp, the Stratos offered exhilarating acceleration through a five-speed manual gearbox.
