When Automobili Amos unveiled its Lancia Delta restoration and modification project called Futurista, rally and Lancia fans likely reveled in the revival of the legendary nameplate. Well, at least until the company announces that only 20 units will be made.
After four years, the last of 20 Lancia Delta Futurista has been unveiled and it comes with an equally iconic livery: Martini Racing. Clad in white bodywork with distinct red and blue stripes, the facelifted 1989 Delta Integrale three-door comes with “Martini Legacy” script on its rear spoiler.
Like all other Delta Futuristas, the bumper, hood and the entire fairing are made of carbon fiber to reduce weight. The trunk, rear spoiler and bumper are also made from the same lightweight material, as well as the engine cover. With these weight-saving measures, the car weighs only 2,755 pounds (1,250 kilograms). Power output is 330 horsepower (243 kilowatts), sent to all four wheels, just like the stock model.
Inside, the Delta Futurista comes with red Alcantara seats, and other parts of the interior are Alcantara as well. Then there are the aluminum pedals and bespoke door panels.
The release of the final Lancia Delta Futurista now paves the way for Automobili Amos to move on to its next project called the Lancia Delta Safarista – a more hardcore version of the Futurista and inspired by the Delta that won the 1988 Rally Safari but with a twist. simple two-tone body color theme. It is still based on a Lancia Delta HF Integrale 16 V donor car.
Only 10 examples of the Safarista will be made, previously announced to have a tempting price of €570,000 or around $561,000 with current exchange rates.
