About the Lancia Delta Integrale Evo 2 Final Edition Kyosho 1:18

TL;DR: Kyosho's 1:18 diecast Lancia Delta Integrale Evo 2 Final Edition reproduces the ultimate 1992 evolution of Lancia's Group A rally hatchback, with flared box-arch bodywork, opening doors and bonnet, and a mapped cabin. A mid-tier diecast anchor for a 1990s World Rally Championship display.

Few road-going hatchbacks carry a competition record like this one. The Evo 2 closed out Lancia's rally programme in its most developed form, and Kyosho treats that final specification with the weight it deserves rather than shrinking it to an afterthought variant.

Kyosho's Diecast Take on the Evo 2 Bodyshell

Flared Arches and Panel Fit

The Evo 2's box arches are the defining shape of this car, wider than the standard Delta by a clear margin to cover the rally-spec track. Kyosho casts that width correctly rather than softening it, and the bonnet vents and front splitter carry crisp edges rather than the rounded-off tooling common on budget diecast. Lift the model from its case and the zinc alloy body reads immediately in the hand, a weight that plastic-heavy castings at this price point cannot replicate. Shut lines around the doors and tailgate stay tight and even, which matters on a boxy 1990s hatch where poor gaps are hard to disguise.

Cabin Trim and Opening Features

Doors and bonnet open on metal hinges, revealing a mapped dashboard, contrasting door card colour and sports-style bucket seats that echo the rally-homologated cabin. The gauge cluster is legible rather than a printed smudge, and the gear lever and handbrake are picked out rather than moulded into a single block of colour. This is where a mid-tier diecast earns its position: the panels a collector actually opens are finished with intent, while the underside carries the simplification that keeps the price accessible. It is an honest trade against the sealed-resin alternative, and one that suits a car meant to be handled and admired panel by panel.

Six Rally Championships and the Evo 2's Final Word

Lancia's Group A Dominance

Between 1987 and 1992, Lancia won six consecutive World Rally Championship manufacturers' titles with the Delta family, a run of dominance no other manufacturer has matched in the sport. The Integrale, and later the Evo 1 and Evo 2, carried that record through some of the most demanding gravel and asphalt rallies of the era. The Delta was never a marketing exercise dressed up as a rally car; it was a genuine homologation special, built in road form specifically to satisfy Group A rules while the works team fought for titles. That distinction is what gives a Delta Integrale replica real weight on a shelf.

The Evo 2 as the Last Development

The Evo 2 arrived as Lancia's final refinement before the works team withdrew from top-level rallying, carrying a larger turbocharger, revised intake and the last word in the car's aerodynamic package. Nothing beyond it followed in the same bloodline, which is exactly why the Final Edition badge on this model carries genuine meaning rather than marketing gloss.

Where the Delta Integrale Sits on a Rally Shelf

Placed beside period Group A rivals such as the Ford Sierra Cosworth, Toyota Celica GT-Four or Subaru Legacy, the Delta stands out simply for being a hatchback among mostly saloons and coupes, a shape that photographs distinctively in a mixed rally lineup. At roughly 25 centimetres, it fits a standard cabinet row without demanding extra clearance. Collectors weighing diecast against sealed resin should note the trade honestly: this Kyosho gives up some paint depth for opening panels and genuine heft, a fair swap for a car built to be inspected rather than just admired from a distance.
