MANHART INTEGRALE 400

Lancia has only been a shadow of itself for a number of years. The Italian luxury brand is currently only represented on the home market with the Ypsilon model. Although the start of a new era has been announced: Until this begins, only a look back at a glorious history remains. Lancia undoubtedly has such a history behind it, not least because of the successful motorsport commitments from the 1970s to the 1990s. Unforgotten legends are the Delta racing cars, especially the HF Integrale rally cars. We at MANHART Performance has now refined an example of the Delta HF Integrale road offshoot into the MANHART Integrale 400.

MANHART usually stands for high-quality customization of current models from BMW in particular, but also from other brands. However, the topic of heritage is also very important to our specialists from Wuppertal. This is why optimized classics are created under the MANHART Classic Cars label. The scheme of the typical MANHART naming remains unchanged. Thus, the 400 gives an indication of the vehicle’s performance.

To be more precise, it is 375 hp and 550 Nm. This enormous increase compared to the base vehicle (200 hp / 298 Nm) results from the combination of a MANHART software optimization with various hardware adjustments. The centerpiece is the MANHART turbo performance kit with upgrade turbocharger including racing header and turbo timer. In addition, MANHART forged pistons with forged MANHART H-beam connecting rods sit in the cylinders on a MANHART camshaft from Catcams. A MANHART fuel pump from Bosch, a MANHART Group N-Air Intake as well as a MANHART radiator and ventilator complete the package. Last but not least, a new 3.5-inch exhaust system came under the Lancia. It ends in two tailpipes with a diameter of 80 millimeters.

MANHART also upgraded the five-speed manual transmission with Group N components. It is connected to the engine via a MANHART clutch from Sachs. The MANHART chassis optimization including MANHART coilovers Variant 3 by KW Suspensions ensures even better driving dynamics. A MANHART Evo brake kit guarantees convincing deceleration values. It has 4-piston Brembo calipers on 380×28 mm discs on the front axle. At the rear there are 2-piston calipers on 284×22 mm discs. Tires in 205/40ZR17 ensure good grip. Absolutely true to style are the OZ Racing Rallye Racing 8×17-inch wheels. With regard to their finish, Dark Graphite with silver lettering was chosen. On request, however, other individual configurations of the wheel color are also possible.

The Italian hot hatch is visually distinguished by a MANHART Evo roof spoiler. In addition, there is a wrapping including the typical MANHART decal set. The interior received a fine leather/Alcantara interior with individual accents. A MANHART short shifter, MANHART Evo instruments and a MANHART sports steering wheel with a diameter of 350 millimeters were also installed. MANHART floor mats complete the interior upgrade.
