Introduced for the later 159 range, the 2009–2012 Alfa Romeo 159 Sportwagon 2.0 JTDM 16v 170 combines a 2.0-liter turbo-diesel four-cylinder with the flexibility of a five-door wagon. The engine produces 168 hp at 4,000 rpm and 266 lb-ft of torque at 1,750 rpm, sending its output through a six-speed manual transmission to the front wheels. With a 134 mph top speed and 8.7-second 0–60 mph time, it provides strong everyday performance while retaining the efficiency expected from a modern diesel.
Practicality is another strength, with five seats and 15.7–43.6 cubic feet of luggage space. The chassis uses double-wishbone front and multi-link rear suspension, while the 1,956 cc engine features DOHC 16-valve technology and common-rail injection. AutoSpecsHub lists 45.2 mpg combined economy and an 836-mile range, giving this Sportwagon a useful balance of long-distance efficiency, substantial torque and everyday versatility.
