Book Description
Some sixty years separate the first and last lorries to have come out of the Lancia factory and another thirty have passed since. Statistics confirm that very few of these vehicles are still active and in a short time Lancias will only be a memory. From the beginning of this century until the seventies Lancia designers closely monitored changes of technology, of scale and of possible applications that might concern commercial vehicles.The philosophy that guided company technicians was one of trying to anticipate market trends and technological advances. Some will reasonably object that this is not a formula for selling trucks. In fact, Lancia never did sell vast numbers of new vehicles but that did not prevent the company from occupying a predominant role in the history and development of industrial vehicles. To reconstruct Lancia history is an arduous task. Even after the Second World War, when mass production had taken over the industry, Lancia still produced innumerable model versions, each one of which was constantly improved and modified by specialist coachbuilders. For example, the "Esagamma 519" model was made in only 322 examples from a range of 336 possible versions.There were countless prototypes, "one-off" models, limited series and variants introduced during production.
