The Stola S85 was a stretched limousine prototype shown at the 2004 Geneva Motor Show to mark Stola's 85th year in business. It was based on the Lancia Thesis, on which Stola had done engineering consultancy work, and it grew out of a limousine version Stola proposed during that work, similar to its earlier Thema and Kappa conversions. Stola lengthened the car by 600 mm while reworking the upper and side surfaces, the glass and the interior roof trim so that it avoided the usual stretched look. A two-tone amaranth finish alluded to the limousines of the 1930s and 1940s. Inside were a flat wooden rear floor, Frau leather, adjustable rear seats, a drinks cooler and an in-car office and entertainment system. With 230 PS it was quoted at a top speed of 230 km/h. The show car was ready earlier and was first named S82, but Fiat management postponed its presentation from the 2001 Frankfurt show.
