Lancia Voyager is ready to take on the international market hoping to sell in Europe at least 11,000 units a year: a demanding target in the current financial climate, but nevertheless not impossible to achieve. In Europe we are talking about a starting price of €39,900 which, taking all the trims into consideration, can be quite inviting.

Lancia has introduced some innovations: it has modified the bumper’s design, the front grill, introduced some new LED lights and in terms of passenger compartment’s configuration, the Voyager is adopting a 2-2-3 module, the direct evolution of the 2-3-2 chosen for the Chrysler Grand Voyager. The body is characterised by numerous chrome elements and the optical groups’ design is also been reviewed: the final result is an eye-catching and flashy vehicle that won’t surely go unnoticed.

Talking about the engine, the four-cylinder 2.8 diesel (163 hp / 360 Nm) at first sight doesn’t seem enough considering that the Voyager weights 2.3 t, nevertheless it satisfies this vehicle’s needs. Be prepared for a regular drive though: the Voyager keeps a steady pace without any significant acceleration regardless of how hard we push the pedal. The six-speed automatic gearbox in our opinion feels a bit slow while the braking system is of remarkable good quality: responsive and sharp.
