Chassis

#81200.1003

The Lancia Appia Coupé Boano one-off.

Vehicle Overview

The Lancia Appia Coupé Boano, unveiled to the world at the prestigious 1956 Geneva Motor Show, stood as a testament to the craftsmanship and creativity of Carrozzeria Boano. Crafted on chassis 81200-1003, this captivating creation was the brainchild of the renowned designer Giovanni Michelotti, whose visionary approach breathed life into the automotive realm. One of the most striking features of this masterpiece was the ingenious solution to the classic Lancia grille’s verticality. Carrozzeria Boano’s signature touch, the “mustache,” gracefully adorned the front fascia, adding a touch of dynamism and modernity. This subtle yet effective graphic element not only enhanced the car’s aesthetics but also exemplified the marriage of form and function. The allure of the Lancia Appia Coupé Boano extended beyond its front end. Michelotti’s keen eye for detail was evident in every aspect of the design, including the tail lights. A clever play of two-tone paintwork visually lightened the rear, creating a harmonious balance between light and shadow, form and color. Such meticulous attention to visual balance elevated the car’s design to a level of timeless elegance. Despite its singular presence at the Geneva Motor Show, the Lancia Appia Coupé Boano remained a one-off creation, adding to its exclusivity and allure. Its rarity only served to accentuate its desirability among automotive enthusiasts and collectors alike, cementing its status as a true automotive icon.
