The Lancia Musa (Type 350) is a luxury 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 have been in production since 2004 and are based on the Project 188 platform, originally used for the second-generation Fiat Punto. The Musa has been a sales success for Lancia with it outselling the Fiat Idea by some margin, particularly in its home market.
History
The Musa was unveiled in the 2004 Geneva Motor Show with customer deliveries beginning in Europe in October of the same year. The Musa's front and rear end styling is visually very similar to that of the technically related Lancia Ypsilon, with which it shares the headlights.[2] The interior is appointed in luxurious materials, such as Alcantara or leather (dependent on specification), as well as chrome details. The Musa is not offered with 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.[3]
Evolution
The Musa's evolution is available from October 2007 in Lancia dealers, with larger boot and the new Lancia logo, bigger and clear; innovative optionals as the Blue&Me (available bluetooth telephone connection and USB port for mp3 files), new body colours and equipment and a VIP treatment. In 2008 for Italian market Lancia introduce the new EcoChic version with 1.4 Fire 8v dual power (LPG and petrol) engine. In 2009 Lancia introduced the Stop&Start with the new 1.4 Fire 16v engine and the new 1.2 Multijet II Euro 5 version with 95 PS (70 kW; 94 hp).
