2004–2006 Alfa Romeo 166 2.4 JTD 16v Multijet Specs & Performance

The 2004–2006 Alfa Romeo 166 2.4 JTD 16v Multijet pairs the substantial character of Alfa Romeo's executive sedan with a powerful five-cylinder turbo-diesel engine. Its 2.4-liter inline-five produces 173 hp and 284 lb-ft of torque, sending power to the front wheels through a six-speed manual transmission. With a 138 mph top speed and 8.6-second 0–60 mph acceleration, it offers strong performance for a diesel sedan, while common-rail injection and a DOHC 20-valve layout help define the Multijet powertrain.

The 166 remains focused on comfort and practicality, providing seating for five and 17.3 cubic feet of luggage space. At 3,560 pounds, it has a substantial road presence, supported by double-wishbone front and multi-link rear suspension. Combined fuel economy is rated at 31.4 mpg, with a quoted 572-mile range, making this version particularly well suited to longer journeys where its strong low- and mid-range torque can be put to good use.
