Lancia Dilambda Berlina Farina

The Lancia Dilambda Berlina Farina is catalogued as a 1935 example of the Italian marque’s luxury V8 range with closed coachwork attributed to Stabilimenti Farina. Its six-light saloon configuration reflects the period practice of building distinctive bodies around mechanical chassis supplied by Lancia. The historic listing records an individual car; details concerning its exact chassis and later preservation remain to be independently documented.

The Dilambda represented Lancia’s larger and more prestigious class of automobile. Its narrow-angle V8 engine displaced approximately 3,960 cc and was coupled to a four-speed manual transmission driving the rear wheels. Details of wheelbase, equipment and body dimensions varied across the range, so model-level technical specifications should not automatically be treated as measurements of this particular Farina-bodied berlina.

Stabilimenti Farina was among the Italian specialists supplying individually styled coachwork for prestigious interwar chassis. This dossier preserves the catalogue attribution to that firm while keeping the specific body history, chassis identification and ownership claims open to archival verification.
