Lancia Stratos legacy continues through new Tipo 829 and kit car replicas

Automotive enthusiasts and manufacturers are revisiting the legacy of the Lancia Stratos through modern tributes and replicas.

Angelilli Automobili, a Rome-based company utilizing advanced manufacturing and 3D printing, is developing the Tipo 829. This project, created in collaboration with engineer Nicola Materazzi, serves as a modern homage to the original Stratos, which shared the internal designation 'Tipo 829'. The new vehicle is expected to feature a 3.2-liter V6 engine producing approximately 500 horsepower with all-wheel drive. The company plans to offer three configurations: 'Terra' for gravel and mountain roads, 'Strada' for daily road use, and 'Pista' for circuit driving.

In the kit car market, a 2012 Hawk HF3000 replica of the Stratos is currently up for sale in the United Kingdom. Produced by Hawk in East Sussex, these kits provide a bespoke chassis and body tub designed to replicate the iconic rally car. The specific model listed has recorded 1,531 miles and is finished in Giallo Yellow.
