Turning circle is important for city driving, even for a Hatchbacks like the Lancia Ypsilon Ibrida 1.2 48V-Hybrid are often used in cities because they offer a lot of practicality for their relatively short length, which in this case is 4075 mm. But their practicality is enhanced by a good turning circle, which makes them easier to manoeuvre even in narrow city streets.Turning circle is measured in meters it takes for the Ypsilon Ibrida 1.2 48V-Hybrid to complete a whole circle (diameter). With it’s
length of 4075 mm and
wheelbase of 2545 mm,
the Lancia Ypsilon Ibrida 1.2 48V-Hybrid has a turning circle of 10 m. The best turning abilities you can find amongst similar vehicles has Estrima Birò Small Maxi 45 ( ), which is
5 m. For comparison, the wheelbase of the Birò Small Maxi 45 is 0 mm and the length is 4075 mm. On the contrary, the worst-in-class value of 11 m belongs to the GWM ORA 03 (48 kWh) . It’s wheelbase is 2650 mm and width is 1825 mm.
The difference in Turning circle between first generation (843) from 2003 and last generation (Ypsilon L21) from 2025 is 1 m.
