MSRP:$10,000 – $13,000
The 1994–1996 Alfa Romeo 145 1.7 belongs to the first-generation 145 and is powered by a naturally aspirated 1.7-liter flat-four gasoline engine. It produces 127 hp and 109 lb-ft of torque, paired with a five-speed manual transmission and front-wheel drive. The three-door compact hatchback seats five people and combines Alfa Romeo's distinctive character with a relatively compact 100-inch wheelbase.
The 1.7 gives the 145 a straightforward, lightweight performance formula suited to everyday driving. Its 127-mph top speed and 9.5-second 0–60 mph time provide respectable performance for a compact hatchback, while the FWD layout, MacPherson-strut front suspension, and trailing-arm rear suspension contribute to predictable road manners. The naturally aspirated engine develops peak power at 6,500 rpm, giving it a distinctly rev-oriented character.
