A high point of the Lancia stand at the Bologna Motor Show was the Musa Platino⁺ which takes the form of a deluxe compact MPV with two-tone bodywork, equipment worthy of a true flagship and special leather interiors with contrast piping as standard. First shown as a showcar at the Frankfurt IAA in September, it has recently gone on sale in Italy and will soon follow across Europe.

More specifically, the Musa Platino⁺ has been displayed in Bologna with a 100bhp 1.9 Multijet engine and an attractive Angelico Blue and Caravaggio Brown livery while the interiors are trimmed in Wenghe Brown leather with Ivory top-stitching and piping. The equipment list is startlingly good value and as good as anything else in this category.
 

Examples include a dual zone automatic climate control system, map and pictogram satellite navigation system with GSM phone, handsfree set, CD and MP3 file player, GranLuce electric sunroof, parking sensors, foglight and 16” two-tone wheels. The vehicle also boasts the most sophisticated systems and devices available in the safety field: ABS with EBD, four airbags, ESP, ASR and Hill Holder.
