The 2009–2012 Alfa Romeo 159 2.0 JTDM 16v 170 is a diesel-powered version of the 159 sedan, using a turbocharged 2.0-liter inline-four with common-rail injection. It produces 170 PS (168 hp) and 266 lb-ft of torque, paired with a six-speed manual transmission and front-wheel drive. With a 135 mph top speed and approximately 8.5-second 0–60 mph performance, the 2.0 JTDM 170 offers a strong balance of mid-range torque and everyday drivability.
The four-door sedan seats five and provides around 14.3 cubic feet of luggage space. Its DOHC 16-valve diesel engine uses a front-transverse layout, while the 159 chassis combines double-wishbone front and multi-link rear suspension. With approximately 55.4 mpg combined economy, this later 159 variant focuses on combining useful performance with substantially improved fuel efficiency.
