Lancia Augusta was a car of the manufacturer Lancia . It was an intermediate model between the equally motorized middle class car Lancia Artena and the upper class model Lancia Astura and should compete with the simpler Fiat 508 .

The Augusta was manufactured in the main plant, but also in a new plant in Bonneuil-sur-Marne that had been built since 1931. In France the model was sold as the Lancia Belna . A total of 17,217 vehicles were produced, of which 3,000 were in France, of which 2,500 were sedans and 500 were built by external coachbuilders, most of which went to Pourtout .
