Lancia already grabbed attention with its 2009 Geneva Auto Show debut, and is touted by Fiat as “an environmentally friendly car concept, being luxurious but accessible, spacious but compact, sparkling but frugal in consumption. At Geneva, Lancia is further enhancing its “green” credentials by presenting, as a world preview, a dual-power LPG and gasoline range.
