Product Overview

Alfa Romeo 159 (chassis code 939) is a compact executive sedan in production from 2005 to 2011. It was available with a range of inline-4, inline-5, and V6 engines that displaced 1.7 to 3.2 liters.

Successor to the gorgeous 156, the 159 has a more modern interpretation of the former's design, though lines are made sharper. While the 156 had Q4 AWD models for the wagon variant, it didn't offer AWD for the sedan; the 159 addressed this demand by offering Q4 AWD for the more powerful models.

The one interesting engine is the 3.2L V6, while the more reasonable ones could be the 2.4 JTDM.

Drivers who appreciate handling will be pleased to know that the Alfa Romeo 159 comes with double-wishbone and multi-link suspensions. While unusual for a FWD vehicle, this setup offers superior handling characteristics than a normal strut setup.
