Improving on the classic Alfa 156 Was no easy task, but Alfa Romeo designers and engineers have produced a masterpiece in the all-new Alfa 159. longer, wider, and lower then its predecessor, with an incredibly rigid body shell and sesational handling, it is without equal as a cutting edge sports saloon. Naturally the increased dimensions have paid dividends in term of interior space - the Alfa159 is now amongst the class leaders for roominess, comfort, habitability, and luggage room. The new Alfa 159 comes with a wide range of JTS direct-injection petrol engines, JTDm common rail turbodiesels, plus the availability of Q4 permanent four wheel drive.
