Additional Notes
- All six Lancia Appia variants covered in the 1959-1963 period share an identical brake fluid capacity of 0.45 liter, indicating a uniformly sized hydraulic brake system across the model range regardless of body style or trim designation.
- The 0.45 liter figure represents the total fluid volume held within the hydraulic brake system, encompassing the master cylinder reservoir, brake lines, and wheel cylinders combined.
- The Appia Convertible (812.01), Coupe (812.04), G.T.E. (812.03), Lusso (812.02), Sport (812.05), and the base 808.xx series all carry the same 3,000 km check interval under normal use conditions.
- A 3,000 km brake fluid check interval is notably frequent by general automotive standards, reflecting the hygroscopic nature of brake fluid and the importance of maintaining adequate fluid level and condition in hydraulic braking systems of that era.
- The specifications apply to normal use conditions across all listed variants, meaning the 3,000 km check interval and 0.45 liter capacity are not adjusted for any severe or alternative operating condition in these entries.
- The 808.xx designation for the base Appia series uses a wildcard suffix, indicating the specification applies across multiple sub-variants within that chassis family, all sharing the same 0.45 liter capacity and 3,000 km service check.
