The Lancia coupe that never was

What if Lancia had built a coupé version of its 2002–2008 Thesis sedan, as it had done with many of its luxury four-door models in the past? One of our clients, a passionate Lancia enthusiast, posed exactly that question and asked us to design a one-off Lancia Thesis Coupé.

Based on the 3.2 V6 24V sedan, we gave the car a sportier front end with a wider grille, subtly raked the windscreen, and drew inspiration from the iconic Lancia Aurelia for the rear section. The rear window design itself takes cues from Lancia’s signature grille, creating a distinctive visual link to the brand’s heritage.

Although the project never progressed beyond a 3D computer model and a series of 3D-printed scale models, it would still be wonderful to see this unique creation brought to life and cruising the roads one day in the hands of a true Lancia enthusiast.
