The Lancia Thema 8.32, produced from 1986 to 1992 and powered by a Ferrari-derived 2.9L V8, was one of the first production cars to feature an electrically deployable rear spoiler. At higher speeds, a small motorized wing rose from the trunk lid to improve stability and then retracted when not needed, an innovation decades ahead of its time for a luxury sedan. While it’s often credited as the first production car with such a feature, the claim is best described as one of the earliest examples of active rear aerodynamics rather than the absolute first. Do you think modern manufacturers should bring back that kind of understated engineering flair? What are your thoughts? 🤔💭 ( Media: @tbdeltaintegrale ) #lancia #lanciathema #ferrari #classiccar #cars
