Set to debut at the Paris Motor Show, the model revives a famous performance badge on a [battery-powered fastback crossover](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/scout-traveler). It is the first production Lancia in decades to wear the HF Integrale badge, shifting the badge from a rally-era hatchback to an electric crossover.

For shoppers, this means the priciest Gamma will not force a choice between sporty character and long-distance EV use on road trips. It also turns [performance badging in electric crossovers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-luce) into something buyers can expect to affect the drive, not just the look.
