828 Overview:
Lancia Trevi (828). With 176 Nm of torque, it offers ample pulling power. Weighing only 1165 kg, it’s quite light. Front‑wheel drive delivers efficiency and easy handling. Acceleration is relatively slow (0–100 km/h in 10.4 s). The top speed reaches 180 km/h. A four-door car with a separate trunk, ideal for families and daily commuting. Seating for 5 makes it ideal for daily use.
The Lancia Trevi (828) was produced before modern crash testing standards like Euro NCAP were established. Safety features were rudimentary by today's standards, typical for vehicles of the early 1980s.
2.0 (115 Hp) Verdict:
Performance Verdict
A strong performer for its class, the 115 Hp 2.0L carbureted engine provides robust acceleration and ample power for both city and highway driving.
