Stellantis is not letting Monday’s Alfa Romeo Giulietta news take the week. Less than 24 hours after confirming a replacement for the Giulietta compact hatch, the group has rolled out the first official images and details of the incoming Lancia Gamma, in advance of its Paris Motor Show debut in October. The new Gamma is being pitched as a crossover fastback, with hybrid and fully electric powertrains both on the menu.

The styling picks up where the new Ypsilon subcompact hatchback left off. Up front, split LED headlights and DRLs lean into the Mandalorian-helmet look the brand seems committed to, with active shutters cut into the lower bumper for cooling and aero duty.

Down the sides, the surfacing is clean, the door handles sit flush in the lift from DS Automobiles, and a thin band of gloss-black cladding wraps the wheel arches. The roofline is not as aggressively raked as the Peugeot 408 or the DS No8, both of which sit on related Stellantis bones, but the Gamma still carries the coupe-SUV stance the segment now expects.

There is a deeper cut for Lancia fans too. The black trim running down the C-pillars is a subtle callback to the original Gamma Berlina fastback saloon.

The crossover measures 4.67 m (183.9 inches) long, 1.89 m (74.4 inches) wide, and 1.66 m (65.4 inches) tall, which makes it roughly 15 cm (5.9 inches) shorter and 80mm (3.2 inches) taller than the DS No8. We keep mentioning the French fastback because the two models share the STLA Medium architecture, and both are built at the Melfi plant in Italy.

One Hybrid, Three EVs

Stellantis has confirmed an entry-level hybrid producing 143 hp (107 kW / 145 PS) with a claimed range north of 1,000 km (621 miles). It is almost certainly an electrified take on the turbocharged 1.2-liter three-cylinder used across the group, in everything from the Peugeot 208 to the Jeep Compass.

The rest of the Gamma lineup goes fully electric, with three outputs and battery sizes to pick from. The base EV opens the range with 227 hp (169 kW / 230 PS) and over 540 km (335 miles) of range. A step up brings 242 hp (180 kW / 245 PS) and more than 740 km (460 miles). At the top sits a dual-motor all-wheel-drive flagship producing a combined 370 hp (276 kW / 375 PS), with up to 675 km (419 miles) on a single charge.

Big Screens And A Coffee-Table Console

The interior has a similar layout to the DS No8, including what appears to be a 10.25-inch digital instrument cluster and a 16-inch infotainment display. The bigger display runs Lancia’s SALA system and absorbs the climate controls into the touch interface.

Where Lancia separates itself is the center console, anchored by the brand’s signature “tavolino” tray that takes its cues from a small coffee table. The Italian crossover also gets its own ambient lighting setup and different door cards than its French cousin, along with a three-spoke steering wheel with integrated controls.

Given where Lancia is trying to position itself, the cabin should lean upscale, and the pictured example mixes black fabric with white synthetic leather and a handful of metal-look accents. The edge of a panoramic roof peeks into the photo, and the overall shape suggests this could be the most family-friendly Lancia since the long-gone Phedra minivan.

Order books open after the summer, with pricing yet to be confirmed and more details promised over the coming months.

Stellantis just pulled the covers off a gigantic new global strategy, and buried beneath all the boring corporate jargon is something buyers will really care about. Affordable cars are back.

The company says it plans several new sensibly-priced vehicles for North America, including two models priced below $30,000, and seven coming in under $40,000, all before the decade ends.

North America will receive 11 all-new vehicles by 2030 as part of a wider global product offensive involving more than 60 launches and 50 major refreshes. And rather than trying to push EVs to audiences that don’t necessarily want an electric car, Stellantis is still betting on a broad mix of powertrains. The company confirmed future plans include 29 EVs, 15 plug-in hybrids or range-extenders, 24 hybrids, and nearly 40 combustion or mild-hybrid vehicles.

The backbone of this new strategy is a fresh modular architecture called STLA One that will underpin more than 30 models globally. Launching in 2027, it’s designed to replace multiple existing platforms with one scalable setup, supporting everything from compact hatchbacks to midsize SUVs.

Stellantis says it’s engineered specifically for different propulsion systems and can feature steer-by-wire tech, STLA AutoDrive autonomy, and STLA Brain software architecture. It will also deliver something called STLA SmartCockpit to allow drivers more interaction with their cars, and EVs get cell-to-body battery integration to reduce cost and weight.

The automaker is also reshuffling its brand priorities. Jeep, Ram, Peugeot, and Fiat have now become the company’s four primary global brands and receive the lion’s share of future investment. Around 70 percent of development spending will go toward those names and the Pro One commercial vehicle business.

Other Brands Play Second Fiddle

Other brands still survive, though they’ll get what they’re given when it comes to hardware, rather than get a say in what that hardware is. Alfa Romeo, Dodge, Chrysler, Citroen, and Opel are positioned as strong regional players using shared technology and platforms. Maserati also gets a time extension with two new flagship E-segment models promised, while Lancia and DS continue operating as niche specialty brands. 

Europe’s side of the plan includes a fresh wave of compact crossovers, hybrids, and city EVs designed to better compete against Chinese rivals rapidly expanding across the continent. Those cars could include the return of the iconic back-to-basics Citroen 2CV. Stellantis is also teaming up with its long-time partner in China, Dongfeng, to build and sell Voyah-brand cars in Europe.

And earlier this week it announced it was partnering with Jaguar Land Rover to develop cars for North America, a deal that could help JLR sidestep punishing import tariffs on the European-built cars it sells in the US.
