That news was on the most importanta italian economy newspaper, "Il Sole 24 ore" on Thrusday 17 Jan. to Fiat last decade manager Cantarella.
I don't think Lancia close totally, but the plain of Fiat is clear, Lancia will be inclded in totally in Fiat cars, no more project completely dedicated to Lancia and is probably totally clusure of tha dealers Lancia, no more sport cars or coupe in future, only sedan lightly more accurate than Fiat models: and this last decade of Lancia models was been in this direction. The investments Fita and GM will be only for Alfa.
I think the better thing was to create a new structure called Alfa-Lancia spa well split to Fiat, with luxury and sports car of the same level of German cars. This options is not accepted for this I hope Fiat sell Lancia to BMW but is hard. Fiat, some years ago, was not sell Lancia under strong request by Toyota and more recently Mercedes: they have fear for the italian Fiat market with a Lancia woth a right well by a stranger owner.
I have now two old Lancia, a Fulvia coupe 1.3s and a Gamma Coupe 2.5ie, Delta Evo is a dream...
bye
