The 2007–2008 Alfa Romeo 159 2.4 JTDM 20v combines the elegant styling of the 159 with a strong turbocharged diesel powertrain. Its 2.4-liter inline-five develops 207 hp and 295 lb-ft of torque, driving the front wheels through a six-speed manual transmission. With a listed 143 mph top speed and 7.9-second 0–60 mph time, it delivers strong performance while the substantial torque makes it well suited to longer-distance driving.
The four-door sedan seats five and provides 14.3 cubic feet of luggage space, giving the 159 useful everyday practicality alongside its performance. The engine uses common-rail injection, DOHC and 20 valves, while the chassis features double-wishbone front and multi-link rear suspension. Its 34.6 mpg combined economy and 639-mile range further strengthen its appeal as a capable and relatively efficient diesel sedan.
