This concept electric vehicle is an Italian home on wheels
- The Lancia concept EV's interior has been inspired by contemporary Italian homes with immense attention to detail to compose pure forms.


Stellantis-owned brand Lancia has unveiled Pu+Ra HPE concept electric vehicle, which the company states will act as its vision for the next 10 years. Lancia Pu+Ra HPE is inspired by the world of furniture and to create the interiors, the automaker has partnered with Cassina, an upscale furniture company. The carmaker insisted on interiors that promise a vibe of Italian homes.
This concept EV from Lancia is based on the automaker's new design language and hence comes in a more streamlined shape. One can find dominant shapes such as circles and triangles combined with a few eclectic details across the exterior of the electric vehicle. There is a circular roof that provides a broad and panoramic view. The window at the rear of the car with horizontal lines looks like a sunblind structure. The other windows are larger in size, which allows sufficient light that further elevates the home-like feeling.

Lancia shares the interiors are inspired by contemporary Italian homes with immense attention to detail to compose pure forms. The two free-standing single armchairs along with round tables in the centre console and the dashboard with clean lines give the feeling of a hospitable environment. Luca Napolitano, CEO of the Lancia brand, says, “Starting with the new Ypsilon, our cars of the future will be inspired by the Lancia Pu+Ra HPE." About 70 per cent of touchable materials in the car are made up of eco-sustainable materials.
