Lancia Omicron

Production of the Omicron started in 1927 and ended in 1936 after 601 total models were built.

The bus is used in the deserts for long journeys to connect places in north African countries such as Sudan and Algeria.

[1] Advertising of the Omicron chassis in the UK promoted its high load capacity, including a test to demonstrate the chassis carrying eight tons of steel ingots and hauling five laden trailers, a total weight of over 50 tons.

Urban bus routes such as Rome and Tivoli used two-door bodies coach-built by Macchi and Carminati.

[3] The first diesel engine for that was made in 1934 and showed the innovation from Lancia vehicles.
