The Lancia Beta was originally introduced in 1972 as a four door saloon (Berlina) with a wheelbase of 2,540 millimetres (100 in) and 'fastback' styling giving the appearance of a hatchback It featured 1400, 1600 and 1800 transversely mounted twin-cam engines based on earlier Fiat designs along with five speed gearbox in November 1974 a 1300 engine joined the range at the bottom, then in the fall of 1975 the existing 1600 and 1800 engines were replaced by new 1600 and 2000 units The Beta line was extended with the Pininfarina designed Trevi and in 1973 by a 2+2 Coupe

The next version to be launched was a two-door convertible called the Spyder (or Zagato in America), also with 2+2 seating, designed by Pininfarina but built by Zagato. The Spyder used the coupé's shorter wheelbase and featured a targa top roof panel, a roll-over bar and folding rear roof. Early models did not have a cross-member supporting the roof between the tops of the A to B Pillars. Later models had fixed cross-members. It was initially powered by either the 1600 or 1800 twin-cam engine, later being replaced by the new 1.6 and 2.0 though it never received the IE or VX engines fuel injected engines were used in the North American market. The Spyder was designed by Pininfarina but actually built by Zagato. The construction process was complex, with coupé bodies-in-white being delivered to Zagato for the roofless conversion, then back to Lancia for rust-proofing, then back to Zagato for paint, interior and trim, and then back to Lancia for a third time for engine installation and final assembly. Lancia probably lost money on every car built..
