The Lancia Dedra (Type 835) is a compact executive car produced by the Italian automaker Lancia from 1989 to 1999. It was initially designed to support, and went on to replace, the Prisma which, six years after its launch, was having difficulty remaining competitive in the market. It was based on the same platform underpinning the second generation of the Delta (which launched in 1993) and can be considered a saloon variant of the Delta.
