Lancia Flaminia “Super Sport Zagato”, 1965<\/strong><\/h2>\n

The Lancia Flaminia Zagato\u00a0<\/span>Super Sport<\/span><\/strong>, the last of the models of the Flaminia lineage with bodywork by Zagato, unites two of the oldest and most esteemed names in the Italian motoring industry. The result is a fair tribute to both companies. On 4 November\u00a0<\/span>1964<\/span><\/strong>, when the<\/span>\u00a0Turin Show<\/span><\/strong>\u00a0had already begun, the Lancia exhibited a new model, the Flaminia Super Sport, at its stand, which happily brought the evolution of the prestigious Coup\u00e9 Flaminia to a close.
\n<\/span>Elegant and sporty simultaneously, the Super Sport appeared stylistically extremely pleasant, with substantial modifications to the bodywork compared to the previous model. The most apparent of said modifications was in a more stubby\u00a0<\/span>tail<\/span><\/strong>, which maintained the same circular optic groups as on the previous model but inserted into a cavity with a greater diameter at the edge of the lateral curve of the tail. The front also had a new design.
\n<\/span>While maintaining the now traditional Lancia style of the radiator cowling, it had\u00a0<\/span>better aerodynamic profiling<\/span><\/strong>\u00a0and connected nicely with the drop slot of the plastic-covered headlights. The interior fittings were of the highest quality, and the seats had a new anatomical design.
\n<\/span>The boot had a\u00a0<\/span>hatch<\/span><\/strong>\u00a0that\u00a0<\/span>communicated with the driver and passenger compartment<\/span><\/strong>\u00a0for the easy transport of a golf caddie or skis. This solution is quite common nowadays but unusual at the time.
\n<\/span>Compared to the previous Sport versions, the Super Sport, built in 150 pieces in just over two years, was generally more elegant, “<\/span>touristic<\/span><\/strong>,” and streamlined. The Super Sport had achieved a significant record, establishing itself in Italian car production in the mid-sixties as the car with the highest percentage of light alloys (almost 25% of the total weight). The Super Sport could reach 210 km\/h. It was the first non-racing Lancia to be able to run so fast!<\/span><\/p>\n
