1989–1990 Alfa Romeo 164 Super V6 Specs & Performance

The 1989–1990 Alfa Romeo 164 Super V6 paired Alfa Romeo's executive-sedan character with the smooth delivery of a naturally aspirated 3.0-liter V6. Producing 181 hp and 181 lb-ft of torque, the transverse V6 sends power through a five-speed manual transmission to the front wheels. With a 141 mph top speed and a claimed 7.6-second 0–60 mph time, the Super V6 offered strong performance for its era while retaining the refined character expected from a larger four-door Alfa Romeo.

The cabin accommodates four occupants, while the sedan provides 17.8 cubic feet of luggage space. At 2,866 pounds, the car is relatively substantial without being excessively heavy, and its MacPherson-strut suspension at both ends keeps the chassis mechanically straightforward. The 18.5-gallon fuel tank and quoted 24.2 mpg combined economy give the 164 Super V6 a useful touring range, complementing its naturally aspirated V6 character and front-wheel-drive layout.
