1998–2001 Alfa Romeo 156 1.8 Twin Spark Specs & Performance

The 1998–2001 Alfa Romeo 156 1.8 Twin Spark is a first-generation medium sedan with a naturally aspirated four-cylinder gasoline engine. The page identifies the variant as a 1.8 Twin Spark and lists 142 hp and 125 lb-ft of torque, paired with a 5-speed manual transmission and front-wheel drive. Its four-door, five-seat configuration and 102.2-inch wheelbase give it a practical sedan layout, while the transverse front-engine arrangement keeps the powertrain compact.

Performance is supported by a relatively light 2,712-lb curb weight and a naturally aspirated engine that produces peak power at 6,500 rpm. AutoSpecsHub lists a 130-mph top speed and 9.0-second 0–60 mph time, with double-wishbone front and multi-link rear suspension. The page also lists DOHC valvetrain, 16 valves, and multi-point fuel injection.
