The 2008–2011 Alfa Romeo 159 2.4 JTDM 20v Q-Tronic combines the distinctive styling of the 159 with a powerful turbocharged diesel engine and six-speed Q-Tronic automatic transmission. Its 2.4-liter inline-five produces 197 hp and 295 lb-ft of torque, with front-wheel drive delivering a listed 140 mph top speed and 8.0-second 0–60 mph time. The automatic gearbox makes the torque-rich diesel particularly well suited to relaxed everyday and highway driving.
Inside, the four-door sedan seats five and offers 14.3 cubic feet of luggage space. The engine uses common-rail fuel delivery, DOHC and 20 valves, while the chassis combines double-wishbone front suspension with a multi-link rear setup. With 29.8 mpg combined economy and a listed 551-mile range, this Q-Tronic version offers a practical balance of diesel performance, automatic convenience and Alfa Romeo character.
