MSRP:$40,000 – $46,000
The 2007–2008 Alfa Romeo 159 2.4 JTDM 20v Q-Tronic combines the 159's distinctive Italian styling with a powerful turbocharged diesel engine and the convenience of an automatic transmission. Its 2.4-liter inline-five produces 197 hp and 295 lb-ft of torque, while the six-speed Q-Tronic automatic sends power to the front wheels. With a listed 142 mph top speed and 8.1-second 0–60 mph time, it offers strong performance with the effortless character expected from a torque-rich diesel.
The four-door sedan seats five and provides 14.3 cubic feet of luggage space, making it practical enough for everyday use. The engine features common-rail fuel delivery, DOHC and 20 valves, while the chassis uses double-wishbone front and multi-link rear suspension. Its 34.6 mpg combined economy and 639-mile range add long-distance practicality to a package that blends diesel performance, automatic convenience and Alfa Romeo's distinctive design.
