Lancia wystawiła w zakresie wozów średnich nowy ciekawy model z niezależnym zawieszeniem wszystkich czterech kół. Zawieszenie przednich kół jest typowe dla dotychczasowych konstrukcji tej firmy, tylne natomiast koła zawieszone są na poprzecznym resorze i drążkach skrętnych.
(Cytat z Auto Technika Samochodowa '36 - relacja z salonu w Paryżu)

Nadwozie Aprilii zostało opracowane z uwzględnieniem wymogów aerodynamiki. Konstruktorzy korzystali z tunelu aerodynamicznego na politechnice w Turynie.


Artena was discontinued in December. The series III was built from 1933. 488 of 228C (swb) and 1553 of 228A (lwb) were made.

Augusta was replaced by the new Aprilia presented in October. 14.100 were built, some of them in France (Belna).

Although the production of Dilambda was discontinued last year, the model appeared in the sales catalogue available with two different lengths.
