Manhart joined the Integrale craze with its first-ever Lancia tuning project. The one-off modified Lancia Delta Integrale 16V benefits from increased power output, suspension and braking upgrades, a new livery, and a re-upholstered interior.

Starting with the visual makeover, Manhart respected the iconic design of the performance-focused Delta, limiting changes to a new matte green shade combined with red and gray stickers. The tuner kept the Lancia emblems, adding “Manhart” and “Integrale 400” lettering on the tailgate. A cool touch is the new 17-inch alloy wheels by OZ Racing, which really suit the rally-bred character of the Integrale.

Of course, the original sporty bodykit and the adjustable rear spoiler couldn’t be missing from the party, combined with smoked taillights and front indicators. Moving inside, Manhart re-upholstered the seats and door cards with a mixture of leather and Alcantara, while keeping the dashboard intact, with its vintage instrument gauges and Sony cassette player.

The donor vehicle was registered back in 1990 and has 57,500 km (35,729 miles) on the odometer. However, the engine has been rebuilt before 1,550 km (963 miles) with a series of modifications. The 2.0-liter four-cylinder mill got forged pistons, H-Shaft connecting rods, new camshafts, a new turbocharger, a Bosch fuel pump, and a Group N air intake, taking it to an impressive 370 hp (276 kW / 375 PS).

This output is on par with modern hot hatches and represents a significant increase over the 197 hp (147 kW / 200 PS) of the stock Delta Integrale 16V. Power is transmitted to all four wheels via a reinforced 5-speed manual gearbox and the original four-wheel-drive system. Chassis upgrades include a new KW coilover suspension and bigger brakes on both axles, modernizing the handling credentials and allowing the driver to harness all this extra power.

The price tag for the Lancia Delta Integrale 16V Manhart 400 Limited 01/01 is €129,900 ($144,684). This might sound too much for a ’90s hot hatch – even with that much rally heritage on its shoulders – but it is only a fraction of the price of the Integrale restomod by Automobili Amos.
