Model history

From the mid-1960s until the early 1990s, Lancia was a major force in international rallying. At the heart of this success stood the Lancia Delta, one of the most successful rally cars of all time. Between 1987 and 1992, the Delta won the World Rally Championship for manufacturers six consecutive times — a record that still stands. In 1991, Lancia introduced the Delta HF Integrale Evoluzione I, a street-legal version of the rally car, developed for homologation purposes and engineered with competition in mind.

The Lancia Delta HF Integrale Evoluzione I was developed to meet Group A homologation standards and marked the peak of Lancia’s WRC dominance. This model featured a turbocharged 2.0L 16-valve engine producing approx. 210 hp, permanent four-wheel drive, and advanced suspension geometry for razor-sharp handling. Known as the “Evo I” this version featured significant upgrades over its predecessors. It retained the 2.0-litre 16-valve turbocharged engine, producing around 210 horsepower and 298 Nm of torque. Power was sent to all four wheels via a sophisticated permanent four-wheel-drive system with a central viscous coupling and a Torsen rear differential — providing excellent traction on any surface. The Evo I could accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in just under six seconds, making it one of the fastest hot hatches of its time.

The chassis and bodywork were also extensively revised. The track was widened front and rear, the suspension geometry was improved, and the body featured flared wheel arches to accommodate wider tires. The result was not just better handling, but also a more aggressive, purposeful look. A large roof spoiler and functional air intakes emphasized the car’s motorsport pedigree. Today, the Lancia Delta HF Integrale Evoluzione I is a sought-after collector’s car. Its combination of motorsport heritage, raw performance, and distinctive styling makes it a true icon.
