Six‑Series Production Run
From its launch in 1950 until production ceased in 1958, the Aurelia was offered in six successive series. The model’s lifespan covered about 18,200 cars, a respectable figure for a luxury performer of its era.
Pioneering V6 Engine
The Aurelia is celebrated as the first production car to use a V6 engine, a design whose roots trace back to a 1943 experimental V8 project. Between 1950 and 1954 Lancia enlarged the engine three times and employed two head configurations – parallel and skewed – to refine performance.
Segment‑Busting GT Design
The Aurelia GT, built across six series before the model ended in 1958, earned praise as a segment‑buster that blended luxury with sporty handling. Its reputation as a “luxurious performer” endures among classic‑car enthusiasts.
