Two Ypsilon 'B-Kini' versions are lined up for your delectation on the sophisticated and elegant Lancia catwalk. These two limited series versions are distinguished by their brand-new two-tone body and interiors of great prestige and quality.

The two cars are a direct reference to the four unique edition cars introduced at the Bologna 2003 Motor Show that were named after natural elements: Fire, Air, Earth and Water. The ancient Greeks believed that everything experienced by our senses is based on a combination of these four elements. This immortal concept inspired Lancia to produce the Ypsilon Unique Edition cars that were the true stars of the Bologna event.

In the wake of that critical and public acclaim, Lancia now introduces two B-Kini versions in Paris. These are due to go on sale from October in Italy and later in the other European countries. Both versions come in the Argento specification and are equipped with the stirring 70 bhp 1.3 Multijet engine. They come with a bi-zone climate control system, Bose® Hi-Fi, Cruise Control, 16" alloys, leather steering wheel and gearlever and radio controls on the steering wheel.

In detail, the upper part of the first pocket flagship is clad in a warm and seductive three-layer Guttuso red while the lower part is resplendent in sophisticated Paganini ivory. The superb quality interiors combine the softness and sophistication of leather trim with the style of Glamour cloth to create a colour combination that matches the exterior to perfection. This was the version that attracted most attention from the public who were able to see it at its advance world premiere over the summer holidays at the exclusive showroom in Corso Como 14, Milan.

The second Ypsilon B-Kini present in Paris is graced by an elegant, sophisticated body, all based around non-metallic Paganini Ivory shades below and the exclusive micalised Caravaggio Brown shade at the top. This timeless colour match is subtly mirrored inside the car where the exterior colours are repeated.

The Glamour cloth, directly inspired by the world of sailing, takes the form of a mesh cloth similar to the type used to line oilskins; a high-tech fabric reminiscent of the waterproof garments used in sailing - and a warm fabric that comes in several shades: ivory, black, red and yellow.

Last but not least comes a third Ypsilon B-kini that is not present at the Motor Show but is available in the range. This also features exclusive magnesium-brown Glamour fabric inside. This match ideally offsets the exterior shape that is picked out in Rossini Grey at the bottom and the new Caravaggio Brown shade at the top. The final result is a crisp new colour contrast that is quite simply irresistible.
