This power unit is only available in mild hybrid configuration, with a 1-litre three-cylinder unit and 70 HP, mated to a 12-volt BSG electrical system and a lithium battery.

New Lancia Ypsilon 2023-2024 models are also on the way
The new generation of the Lancia Ypsilon could be one five-door compact based on the CMP platform, with an estimated length of about 4 meters. It will be a premium model that will offer both a hybrid and an all-electric powertrain option. The design of the 2023-2024 Ypsilon promises to be modern, elegant and sporty, with a more transversal presence than the previous model. Furthermore, sources close to the automaker suggest the arrival of an HF sports version, characteristic of the Lancia brand.
The new Ypsilon will offer interiors characterized by distinctive style of the brand, with particular attention to detail and care for the interior. The car will be larger than the current city car, offering cutting-edge technology and a higher-than-average selling price. Initially Ypsilon 2023 will be launched in Italy, the first European market in segment B.
Although engine specifications have not yet been officially announced, it is assumed that the Ypsilon 2023 will offer a mild hybrid Euro 7 1.2-litre petrol option, in line with the most restrictive environmental regulations, as well as a 156 HP all-electric version, equipped with a 54 kWh battery and a range of 400 kilometres.
During the presentation of the Pu+Ra HPE prototypethe CEO of Lancia, Luca Napolitano, has revealed new information on the relaunch of the Turin brand, which foresees the launch of the new generation of the Ypsilon at the beginning of 2024, as well as the return to Europe through a network of 70 dealers distributed in six countries of the continent. The new Lancia Ypsilon will be available both with an internal combustion engine and in an all-electric version.
Starting from 2025, the car will be joined by a sports version inspired by the great history of the brand in the world of motor racing, the Ypsilon HF. The latter will present significant differences compared to the Ypsilon standard, with a width greater than 4 cm and a reduction in height, using a 240 HP engine. No further details are currently available on this version, which could be either fully electric or powered by an electrified heat engine.
