Description:
Between October 1985 and 1986 Lancia built 200 examples of a road-going version of the Delta S4, officially named Lancia Delta S4
but widely known as Stradale, for the purpose of homologation in Group B world rally championship of the infamous
S4 Rallye or Corse
car.
Today less than 100 Lancia Delta S4 Stradale remain in private collections.
In Italy during those years, the car was priced at about 100 million Lire:[ five times the price of the most expensive Delta of the time, the HF Turbo.The Stradale's chassis was a space frame, similarly to the racing cars, built out of CrMo steel tubes and aluminium alloy for the crash structures; it was covered by epoxy and fiberglass body panels. Like the rally car these cars mounted in a midships position a 1.8-litre engine, equipped with Weber-Marelli IAW integrated electronic ignition and fuel injection, a supercharger, and turbocharger and two inter-coolers, thus calling it Twin Charged. In road tune the 1.8 produced 250 PS (184 kW; 247 hp) at 6750 rpm and 291 N·m (215 lb·ft) at 4500 rpm (the rally car had over 600 hp). The Stradale kept a three differential four-wheel-drive system; the center differential sent 30% of the engine torque to the front open differential, and 70% to the rear limited slip one.
Lancia claimed the car could reach top speed of 225 km/h (140 mph) and accelerate from standstill to 100 km/h (62 mph) in 5.7 seconds. In contrast to its bare bones racing sisters, the S4 Stradale featured an Alcantara-upholstered interior, sound deadening, a suede steering wheel, and was equipped with power steering, trip computer and air conditioning.
