Modernised limited-run rally monster blends 21st-century tech with classic touches
The Kimera Evo38 is the self-proclaimed spiritual successor to the legendary Lancia 037 rally monster. It has been created by the Italian start-up as a “what would have been” if the 037’s lineage had continued instead of being culled in 1992 - nine years after it claimed Lancia the manufacturers’ world title, the final rear-wheel driven winner of the WRC. Attention has been paid to bringing the model into 2024, whilst still retaining its famous roots.
That car is, like the original 037, based around the central chassis section of a Lancia Beta Montecarlo, with new tubular frame sections added at the front and rear. The chassis has been completely overhauled with new adjustable shocks, modern Brembo performance brakes and Pirelli sport tyres. Its engine, based on the original block, claims outputs of 498bhp and 406lb ft from the turbocharged four-cylinder unit.
