2006–2007 Alfa Romeo 166 2.4 JTD 16v Multijet Specs & Performance

The 2006–2007 Alfa Romeo 166 2.4 JTD 16v Multijet brings Alfa Romeo's executive-sedan character together with a muscular five-cylinder turbo-diesel. Its 2.4-liter engine develops 183 hp and 284 lb-ft of torque, with power sent to the front wheels through a six-speed manual transmission. A 139 mph top speed and 8.4-second 0–60 mph time give this diesel sedan strong performance, while common-rail injection and a DOHC 20-valve configuration underline the more advanced Multijet powertrain.

The 166 remains a spacious four-door sedan, offering seating for five and 17.3 cubic feet of luggage capacity. At 3,560 pounds, it has a substantial road presence, complemented by double-wishbone front and multi-link rear suspension. Its quoted 31.4 mpg combined economy and 18.2-gallon fuel tank make it well suited to long-distance use, allowing the strong torque of the 2.4-liter diesel to complement the car's comfortable executive-sedan character.
