The Italian Lancia Fulvia Berlina (Tipo 818) was introduced at the Geneva Motor Show in 1963. It was named after the "Via Fulvia", the Roman road leading from Tortona to Torino. The Berlina was designed by Antonio Fessia, to replace the Lancia Appia.

At launch the Berlina (1963-1964) was available as a front wheel drive compact four-door saloon with a 1091 cc 4L engine producing 43 kW. In late 1964 the Berlina 2C (1964-1969) was introduced with a more powerful 53 kW engine, the car had a "2C" badge on the radiator grille and a rear "Fulvia 2C" script. At the 1967 Geneva Salon the Berlina GT (1967-1968) was introduced with a 1216 cc (later 1231 cc) engine producing 60 kW. In 1968 the Berlina GTE (1968–69) was introduced with a 1298 cc engine with an output of 65 kW.
