From Autocar this week an article entitled "Fiat: The Next Four Years" with page 12 entitled "Lancia bids for a new coupe and crossover".

Looks substantially re-hashed from earlier articles, sadly. Also, I'm intrigued by the "Epsilon" due in 2009. I was hoping for a new Ypsilon.
My local Fiat dealer has me down as owning an "Epslong".  ::)

Both Autocar and Auto Express have big features on the Fiat group this week.  The key points for Lancia appear to be a new Ypsi in 2009 (A/B segment, so relatively small, sub-Punto) a B/C segment car in 2010 (Grande Punto/Mito sized, perhaps a fraction larger) - so all key cars likely to straddle class size boundaries, as the Delta does.  No Fulvietta until 2011, possibly platform sharing with an Abarth coupe, due in 2010 (!!).
