Short chassis
The 8th series Lancia Lambda with a short chassis.
The short chassis version of the 8th series was one of the rare configurations produced and is now highly sought after by collectors and enthusiasts. The short wheelbase made the car more maneuverable and agile, which made it ideal for racing and sports use.

Influential in automotive history
Overall, the Lancia Lambda is considered one of the most important and influential cars in automotive history, thanks to its innovative technology and advanced features such as the independent front suspension and the V4 engine. The 8th Series in particular is appreciated for its sophisticated styling and impressive performance.

Construction
The Lancia Lambda was a true innovation in automotive engineering, and one of the key features that set it apart from other cars of its time was its advanced construction.
The Lambda was constructed using a structural unit construction, which meant that the body itself provided the vehicle's structural rigidity and strength.
This design approach allowed Lancia to build a car that was both lighter and more powerful than other contemporary cars.

Engine
It was equipped with an advanced and innovative overhead camshaft engine with an aluminum block and cast iron head and a displacement of 2570 cc. The engine was designed in a narrow V configuration, with an angle between the cylinder banks of just 13 degrees.

**Foldable roof
**The short chassis of the 8th series Lancia Lambda features an easy-to-use roof design. Within the wooden decorated frame, the structure features 2 solid support beams that can be folded forward and clicked into the window, making it user-friendly and practical. The roof has stood the test of time and is in good condition.
