1992, 1993
MSRP:$22,000 – $25,000
The 1992–1993 Alfa Romeo 33 S16V QV stands out as one of the most unusual sporting versions of the 33, pairing Alfa Romeo’s naturally aspirated 1.7-liter boxer with permanent all-wheel drive. Its 16-valve flat-four produces 130 hp at 6,500 rpm, giving the compact five-door hatchback a lively character without relying on turbocharging.
A five-speed manual gearbox and relatively low 1,015-kg kerb weight help the S16V QV reach 62 mph in 8.5 seconds and 126 mph. The combination of the boxer engine, longitudinal layout, and AWD system makes this QV particularly distinctive among performance-oriented hatchbacks of the early 1990s, while its five-door practicality keeps it useful beyond outright performance.
