| Miscellaneous Info: | Built by Ansaldo of Italy starting in 1916, but more commonly known as the Lancia IZ, this was the most common of the early Italian armored cars. Having had good results with the early car, another production run of a slightly modified version (the Lancia IZM) or model 1918 was delivered before the end of WWI and continued in use up through the middle of WWII. The major difference between the IZ and IZM was that the IZ had a top turret on the main MG turret, whereas the IZM did not. |
