Starting from today, the all-new Lancia Ypsilon is available for order in Italy with first deliveries scheduled for June in major European markets and September for the Chrysler badged model that will be offered in the UK and Ireland.

Available for the first time in a five-door body style, the fourth generation Ypsilon will be offered in three trim levels (Silver, Gold and Platinum), 17 body colors (four of which are two-tone schemes), six different upholsteries, three types of alloy wheels and three engine choices. All of these options will allow for a total of 600 different model combos.

The 3.84-meter long supermini will be offered with two petrol engines, a 69HP 1.2-liter and a 85HP 0.9-liter TwinAir, with the latter also being available with a DFN semi-automatic gearbox. A third engine option is the 1.3-liter Multijet diesel engine that develops 95 horsepower, with Lancia to offer later on a bi-fuel 67HP 1.2-liter unit that will run on petrol and LPG. All engines are fitted with the Stop&Start technology as standard.

The starting price in Italy for the new Ypsilon is €12,400 ($17,890) for the 1.2-liter petrol Silver version, which is equipped with remote central locking, two-way adjustable steering column, electric front windows, 15-inch steel wheels, 50/50 folding rear bench seat, height adjustable driver seat, fabric upholstery and heated tailgate window.

For €1,300 buyers can upgrade to the Gold version, which adds air conditioning, radio-CD with MP3 reader, electrically adjustable mirrors, leather covered steering wheel and gearshift lever, Castiglio upholstery and a Comfort Pack.

Add another €1,300 and you can get the Platinum model that is enhanced with electric rear windows, fog lights, 15-inch alloy wheels and leather upholstery. The most expensive model of the range will be the 1.3-liter diesel Platinum version, priced at €17.300 ($24,960).

Lancia will continue to offer the older-generation three-door Ypsilon Diva, which is priced at €12,400 ($17,890).
