02Production & history
Production
Every figure says what it counts.
| What is counted | Figure | Basis | Status |
|---|---|---|---|
| Total model productionStradale examples produced (other sources say 207) | 2171 | Factory production | Independently researched |
Independent counts (e.g. engine and colour) are never combined into a calculated figure. Surviving examples are never presented as original production.
History
Lancia assigned the 037 project to Abarth to replace the Stratos under the new FIA rules, reusing the central monocoque of the Beta Montecarlo with a new rear subframe that allowed a longitudinal engine. Pininfarina shaped the bodywork. The road car was shown in March 1982 and homologated into Group B on 1 April 1982, when 207 had been completed against the 200 required. Rally versions won events including Monte Carlo, Tour de Corse and the Acropolis, and took the 1983 title.
