Stellantis revives the Lancia Gamma nameplate as a sleek fastback SUV with hybrid and electric powertrains, but it won't cross the Atlantic.

Lancia has officially revealed the 2026 Gamma, a fastback crossover built on Stellantis's STLA Medium platform — the same architecture underneath the Jeep Compass and Alfa Romeo Tonale. The model launches exclusively in Europe, with order books opening after summer 2026 and first deliveries expected late 2026 into early 2027. Lancia has not sold vehicles in the US since 1982, and Stellantis has confirmed no plans to change that with the Gamma.

Powertrain lineup

The Gamma arrives with four powertrain options. The entry point is a 145 hp mild hybrid with a claimed range of over 1,000 miles between fill-ups — measured on the WLTP cycle, the European range-test standard, which typically reads higher than EPA figures. Three fully electric versions follow:

- 230 hp, 336 miles of WLTP range - 245 hp, over 460 miles of WLTP range - 375 hp / 280 kW all-wheel-drive flagship, 419 miles of WLTP range

Final specs and pricing are still pending — Stellantis says those details are coming in the months ahead. Estimates from European trade press put the range at roughly €40,000 to €65,000, which would translate to approximately $43,000–$70,000 before any local taxes.

Design and interior

At 183.9 inches long, the Gamma slots between a compact and midsize crossover. The body features a sloped rear roofline with small aerodynamic fins flanking the rear glass — a trick more automakers are using to manage airflow at speed. Flush door handles sit at the front; rear handles integrate into the window frame near the C-pillar, where the brand logo also lives.

Inside, Lancia pairs a wide central touchscreen with a digital gauge cluster. Climate controls for driver and passenger each get their own dedicated screen zones at the outer edges of the display. Physical buttons survive below the center vents — a practical nod that many drivers will appreciate. A wireless charging pad, drive mode selector, and transmission toggle round out the center console.

Not coming to the US

The closest thing stateside is the Alfa Romeo Tonale — also Stellantis, also STLA-derived — which starts at around $47,000. The Gamma's platform is technically capable of right-hand-drive production, which has fueled speculation about a potential UK launch in 2027 or 2028, though Stellantis has not confirmed that either.

Stellantis is running pre-production prototypes on public roads now. The Gamma is set to make its public show debut at the Paris Motor Show in October 2026 — per Stellantis's official press release.
