The Lancia Musa is a mini MPV marketed by Lancia, the premium marque of Italian automaker Fiat. It is largely based on the Fiat Idea, with which it shares most of the components, but is differentiated by different front and rear ends, as well as interior elements and equipment. Both the Idea and the Musa are in production since 2004 and are based on the Project 188 platform, originally used for the second-generation Fiat Punto.

The Musa's front and rear end styling is visually very similar to that of, technically related, Lancia Ypsilon, with which it shares the headlights.[1] The interior is appointed in luxurious materials, such as Alcantara or leather (dependent on specification), as well as chrome details. The Musa does without the base 1.2 engine from the Idea, but features an interesting option of Dolce Far Niente (D.F.N.) semi-automatic transmissions for all engines except the 8-valve version of the 1.4 FIRE.[2]
