''' | '''Lancia Appia''' was a car introduced in 1953 as a replacement for the [[Lancia Ardea|Ardea]] and in production for 10 years. The Appia was the last in a long line of [[Lancia]] production cars dating back to the Lancia [[Lancia Lambda|Lambda]] (introduced in 1922) to use the famous sliding pillar front suspension. All three series produced had a [[Lancia V4 engine|V4]] engine of 1089 cc, which gave the car good performance. | ||
In addition to the saloons, a number of special bodied Appias were produced, including a Coupe, by Pininfarina, a convertible by [[Vignale]] and an aluminium bodied GT by [[Zagato]]. | |||
The Appia was renowned for its high quality and simple engineering refinement, which helped it gain a deserved reputation for reliability and longevity. | |||
Often overlooked by classic car enthusiasts (and the press) in favour of its more prestigious stable mates the Aurelia and Flaminia, those who own and run these cars know that they are equally deserving of recognition and preservation. | |||
Three series of Appia was built: | |||
* 1st series, produced between 1953 and 1956. Only [[sedan]] (Berlina] body style built, similar style to the [[Lancia Aurelia|Aurelia]]. | |||
* 2nd series, produced between 1956 and 1959. Longer wheelbase, different boot and higher engine power. | |||
More sportier 2-door version was also available. | |||
* 3rd series, produced between 1959 and 1963. New front end with new new horizontal grille and lower bonnet line and more engine power. | |||
Approximately 98,000 Appias were built as Berlinas, 3,900 as commercial vehicles and 5,200 supplied to coachbuilders. | |||

Lancia Appia was a car introduced in 1953 as a replacement for the Ardea and in production for 10 years. The Appia was the last in a long line of Lancia production cars dating back to the Lancia Lambda (introduced in 1922) to use the famous sliding pillar front suspension. All three series produced had a V4 engine of 1089 cc, which gave the car good performance.
In addition to the saloons, a number of special bodied Appias were produced, including a Coupe, by Pininfarina, a convertible by Vignale and an aluminium bodied GT by Zagato.
The Appia was renowned for its high quality and simple engineering refinement, which helped it gain a deserved reputation for reliability and longevity.
Often overlooked by classic car enthusiasts (and the press) in favour of its more prestigious stable mates the Aurelia and Flaminia, those who own and run these cars know that they are equally deserving of recognition and preservation.
Three series of Appia was built:
- 1st series, produced between 1953 and 1956. Only sedan (Berlina] body style built, similar style to the Aurelia.
- 2nd series, produced between 1956 and 1959. Longer wheelbase, different boot and higher engine power.
More sportier 2-door version was also available.
- 3rd series, produced between 1959 and 1963. New front end with new new horizontal grille and lower bonnet line and more engine power.
Approximately 98,000 Appias were built as Berlinas, 3,900 as commercial vehicles and 5,200 supplied to coachbuilders.
