It replaced the Thema as Lancia's flagship model in 1994 and was itself replaced by Lancia Thesis in 2001. It shared its platform with the Alfa Romeo 166 and was available as a saloon, estate or coupé. The Kappa was only available in left-hand drive, as Lancia pulled out of right-hand drive markets after the demise of the Thema. Kappa is the tenth letter of the Greek alphabet. Greek letters have frequently been used to denote Lancia models. Back in 1919, Lancia had already produced a Kappa (and its later evolutions called Dikappa and Trikappa),[5] but these are far less known nowadays than the 1990s Kappa. In writing, Lancia often referred to the Kappa simply as the k (lower case "k"), which is fairly similar to the original Greek letter κ. The Kappa was not particularly popular, with only 117,216[8] made in total. Italy remained Kappa's most important market, absorbing the bulk of sales. It is also worth noting that in Poland, where Fiat Auto is the biggest domestic car manufacturer, Kappas served as official government cars (replacing Themas). This boosted the Kappa's profile in that country and gave it a peculiar cachet, which is why the Kappa enjoys a solid enthusiast base there.[7] Autocar's Peter Robinson reviewed the Kappa in November 1994 [9] He commented on the car's bland styling which was justified by Fiat's Paolo Cantarella on the basis that the designers didn't want to create too much "visual noise." The body was reported as having twice the torsional rigidity of the outgoing Thema. It was 15% stiffer than any of its rivals. The automatic Aisin-Warner gearbox was shared with the Volvo 850. Robinson went on to say "the Kappa´s dimensions ensure a commodious interior, the impression of space only heightened by a low cowl and very Japanese-looking fascia, somewhere between a Honda NSX and Lexus LS400." Rear cabin room was described as "immense" but the cushion was criticised for being too flat, a fault rectified in later iterations of the car. Robinson criticised the "horrid mock wood with which Lancia frames the prominent central console that runs from the handbrake, up the full length of the dash and over the top." About the driving characteristics, Robinson wrote: "If Lancia quietened the starter motor, this would be one refined drivetrain...with no hint of any 5-cylinder unevenness." The 2.4 litre engine tested appeared to have been tuned for low-end torque, a characteristic of this Alpine brand. The engine was praised by Robinson for its "smooth responsiveness" and "torque steer has been eliminated...and the Servotronic steering is terrific, with just the right degreee of self-centering." His summary of ride and handling was that car was better than average but not class-leading: "On the Lancia there is too much body roll and the front grip in the wet didn´t inspire confidence."

The naturally-aspirated 2.0-litre gasoline engine is fitted with a variable geometry inlet manifold. Inside the cabin, the seats are replaced by a new design, including new upholstery patterns. 1997 - The coupé is launched, while at the same time, some changes are made to the interior, trunk, suspension and engine bay, as well as new alloy wheels. 1998 - The 2.0 L turbocharged four-cylinder engine gets replaced by the five-cylinder, while the turbodiesel was upgraded to a JTD engine. The bumper guards, previously black, are changed to body-coloured, and the base trim level, LE, is dropped, leaving only the more lavish LS and LX. At the same time, a special trim level is introduced for the turbocharged gasoline engine, called simply the "Turbo", distinguished by the lack of chrome decals around the window frames. The interior materials are also upgraded across the lineup, including the addition of a leather-wrapped steering wheel and front central armrest. 1999 - The other two five-cylinder engines are modified along with the air conditioning unit. 2000 - The Kappa gains xenon HID headlamps. Production ceased in mid-2000 (Coupé's earlier in the year).[5][7] [edit] Kappa SW and Coupé The station wagon version of the Kappa, designated "SW" by Lancia, was designed and built by the famous Pininfarina and did not differ from the saloon exterior dimensions - the focus was clearly on presentation rather than cargo space.[5] The Coupé was designed and built by Maggiora and technically quite different from the saloon, having a shorter wheelbase, wider rear track and a distinctive profile with frameless doors. Despite that the front until the window screen remained identical to that of the other Kappas. It was Lancia's first coupé since 1984, when the Beta and Gamma coupés were discontinued, and remains the last Lancia to feature this body style to this day. The small capacities for this hand made car at the Maggiora factory and the relatively high price made it from first time one a rare vehicle, so only 3620 coupes were manufactured from April 1997 to March 2000, making this model a true rarity.[5] Lancia Kappa SW front side Lancia Kappa SW rear side Lancia Kappa Coupé front side Lancia Kappa Coupé rear side [edit] Engines The Kappa had engines fitted transversely, all powering only the front wheels.

But, because I didn't have enough time, I had to abandon my project although not completely. I made a part of its interior since I'm driving most of the time from the inside view and concentrated more on the driving. This is what I came up with, not perfect, but I like the way it handles although most data is not accurate. I added what I could find and I still think that it's a bit too soft and that the brakes are too strong. As I am currently modelling the whole car from the beginning including a new interior please don't look at the quality of this model. I am releasing this because I want the ini to be as good as it gets by the time I have finished the new model and textured it. Hear is the link, test it and please make it better. Of course our ini gurus are more than welcomed to make an ini on their own and the credits will go to them. I will finish my part of the work as quickly as possible, though I won't sacrifice the quality for the sake of getting it done sooner. http://www.speedyshare.com/files/210..._20vt_test.rar Here is a picture, I now this is what you want: Click here for a bigger image.

But it's alright. I should finish modelling the exterior this week, but again who knows. I am trying to make it as good as I can and that's why it is progressing so slowly. I have to rebuild many parts.

Is that the engine Fiat used in the Coupe? A friend of mine has a Coupe, put a good exhaust on and they sound really good, better than any 4 cyl and even better than some V6 engines, really nice. Keep going with it, that's the only advice I can give :smile: Regards, Bruce. ...Nine lives and I had to pick this one... Reply With Quote 21st February 2010 #8 krsman3d Unlicensed Member Join Date Apr 2009 Posts 62 The textures are mine indeed and the shaders are CG, but they could be a bit better, for the exterior at least. The engine is the same as in the Fiat Coupe, code 175.A3000 and it has a great sound too. I actualy own a Kappa 20vt, you'll get pictures later. Last edited by krsman3d; 21st February 2010 at 19:06.
