Engine power and kerb weight are registration-weighted averages across the 9 EU/EEA countries that registered the Lancia Ypsilon in 2025 (11,337 cars). Source: EEA COâ‚‚ monitoring (CC BY 4.0).

Engine power is the type-approved engine power (EEA field Ep). For hybrids and plug-in hybrids it is the power of the combustion engine, not the system power, and for electric cars it can differ from the peak power the manufacturer advertises.
