Detailed analysis of the Lancia Thema 3.0 Multijet 239 CV Platinum (2012-2014)
General description
The 2012 Lancia Thema represents a fascinating crossroads of automotive cultures, a bold symbiosis between American opulence and Italian refinement. Born from the alliance between Fiat and Chrysler, this imposing sedan is the European reinterpretation of the iconic Chrysler 300, a vehicle that doesn't ask for permission to occupy its space on the road and in the heart of its driver.
Driving experience
Getting behind the wheel of the Thema is an experience of power and serenity. The 3.0-liter, 239-horsepower V6 Multijet engine pushes with inexhaustible force from low revs, thanks to its massive 550 Nm of torque. The sensation is not one of nervous sportiness, but of a majestic and constant thrust, like an unstoppable wave. Its rear-wheel drive and a double-wishbone suspension on both axles give it superb poise on the highway, filtering out imperfections with an elegance that invites endless journeys.
Design and aesthetics
Its design is a statement of intent. At over five meters long and with an imposing width, the Thema has an undeniable stage presence. Its lines are muscular and bold, with a chrome grille that dominates the front view and a solid, elegant rear. Lancia knew how to dress American muscle in an Italian haute couture suit, especially in an interior where noble materials and attention to detail create an atmosphere of luxury and warmth.
Technology and features
Although conceived in the early part of the last decade, the Platinum trim offered remarkable technological equipment for its time. The heart of the system was a generous central screen that controlled infotainment and climate, while features like heated and ventilated seats and a high-fidelity sound system ensured first-class comfort. Under the skin, the electro-hydraulic steering and the sophisticated common-rail diesel engine showed that it was not just a pretty face, but a car with solid engineering.
Competition
The Lancia Thema dared to face the German titans of the E-segment, such as the Audi A6, the BMW 5 Series, and the Mercedes-Benz E-Class. It also competed against the refined Jaguar XF. Its main argument was not to beat them at their own game of agility or cutting-edge technology, but to offer an alternative with a unique character, colossal interior space, and a very attractive ratio of size, power, and equipment.
Conclusion
The Lancia Thema is much more than just a car; it's an experience, a sedan for connoisseurs who appreciate uniqueness. It combines the robustness and space of a large American car with the touch of distinction and comfort expected from an Italian luxury sedan. It's not the most agile or the most modern, but its ability to travel with imperial comfort and its imposing presence make it an unforgettable and deeply special choice.
