Detailed analysis of the Lancia Thema 3.0 Multijet 190 CV Platinum (2012-2014)
General description
The 2012 Lancia Thema is a statement of intent, a bold attempt to merge American muscle with Italian elegance. Born from the alliance with Chrysler, this Thema is essentially a Chrysler 300 dressed for a gala, a representative sedan that is not afraid to show its imposing character and its transatlantic lineage, offering an exotic alternative in a segment dominated by German sobriety.
Driving experience
Behind the wheel, the Thema feels like a true highway cruiser. The 190 hp V6 diesel engine pushes with a quiet and constant force from low revs, making long journeys a pure pleasure. Its considerable weight and rear-wheel drive convey a sense of unwavering poise and security, devouring kilometers with superb comfort. It is not an agile car for winding roads, but a machine for traveling in first class, isolated from the outside world and wrapped in an atmosphere of power and serenity.
Design and aesthetics
Its design is pure charisma. The bodywork, with its straight lines, wide shoulders, and a dominant front grille, projects an image of power and prestige that leaves no one indifferent. It is a rolling sculpture that draws directly from the aesthetics of American 'muscle cars', but refined with the Lancia touch. Inside, the cabin is an ode to space and luxury, with quality materials and an atmosphere that welcomes you like the living room of a stately home.
Technology and features
For its time, the Thema Platinum came generously equipped. The technological heart is its 3.0 Multijet engine, a modern and torque-filled mechanic. The central screen of the Uconnect infotainment system was the car's nerve center, offering navigation and connectivity. Although its 5-speed automatic gearbox was not the fastest, its smoothness perfectly matched the vehicle's touring philosophy, complemented by a full range of driving aids and comfort features.
Competition
The Lancia Thema faced the titans of the E-segment, such as the Audi A6, the BMW 5 Series, and the Mercedes-Benz E-Class. However, its fight was not based on matching their dynamic or technological perfection, but on offering an overwhelming personality, a larger size, and more abundant equipment at a competitive price. It also competed with alternatives like the Jaguar XF or the Volvo S80, always standing out for its unique aesthetics and its Italo-American soul.
Conclusion
The Lancia Thema was a brave car with an overflowing personality. A sedan for those who did not want to follow the herd and valued exclusivity, imperial comfort, and a head-turning aesthetic. It represents a fascinating collision of automotive cultures that resulted in an imperfect but deeply emotional and memorable car. A modern classic to enjoy the pleasure of traveling without haste.
