Detailed analysis of the Lancia Thema 3.0 Multijet 239 CV Executive (2012-2014)
General description
The 2012 Lancia Thema is a statement of intent, a sedan that fuses American muscle with Italian soul and elegance. It's not a car to go unnoticed; it's the reincarnation of the Chrysler 300C under the prestigious Lancia emblem, creating a unique and characterful proposition for those looking to stand out in a sea of German sedans.
Driving experience
Behind the wheel, the Thema feels like a true grand tourer. The powerful 239 hp V6 diesel engine pushes with an inexhaustible and serene force, thanks to its 550 Nm of torque available from very low revs. The rear-wheel drive and a double-wishbone suspension on both axles give it an imperial poise on the road, devouring kilometers with superb comfort and a stability that inspires absolute confidence. It is an isolated, powerful, and deeply pleasant driving experience, ideal for long journeys where the destination is as important as the journey itself.
Design and aesthetics
Its aesthetic is imposing and leaves no one indifferent. The lines are bold, muscular, with a road presence that intimidates thanks to its more than five meters in length and its wide body. The large chrome grille and high waistline shout its American heritage, but Lancia has managed to infuse it with a touch of European distinction in the details and, above all, in an interior that seeks luxury and warmth. The enormous 20-inch wheels complete a silhouette that is pure strength and elegance.
Technology and features
For its time, the Thema offered technological equipment focused on comfort and life on board. The cabin was built around an infotainment system with a generous screen, offering a connected and luxurious experience. Elements such as advanced climate control, heated leather seats, and a high-quality sound system created a first-class atmosphere. The electro-hydraulic power steering and a powerful braking system ensured that, despite its size and weight, control always felt modern and safe.
Competition
The Lancia Thema directly faced the titans of the E-segment: the Audi A6, the BMW 5 Series, and the Mercedes-Benz E-Class. However, its battle was not fought on the same ground. The Thema was the emotional alternative, the choice for the driver who valued exclusivity and a design with personality over the clinical perfection of its German rivals. It offered a very attractive relationship between equipment, power, and price, wrapped in a package that guaranteed you wouldn't be just another car in the parking lot.
Conclusion
The Lancia Thema is more than a car; it's an experience, a journey in a sedan with a unique and divided soul. It represents a bold gamble that combines the opulence and strength of the new world with the style of the old continent. Although its commercial life was brief, it left an indelible mark as a vehicle for individualists, for those who understand that luxury lies not only in perfection but also in emotion and character. Driving it is to feel power in a different, more passionate and distinctive way.
