www.alfaromeo.com Sporting performance and elegance in Saloon and Sportwagon. Combining the elegance of a luxury saloon with the sporting performance of a GT, the Alfa Romeo 159 Saloon and Sportwagon owe homage to the passion of Giorgetto Giugiaro for their strong, harmonious lines. Designed to perform with ultimate control and handing in extreme situations, transforming every drive into a motoring experience. A stylishly finished, yet superbly functional cabin envelops you in security. The 159 is now available with two new even more powerful engines. 2-3 Even more power. Even better fuel consumption. Engine development never stops at Alfa Romeo and today's engines offer better than ever performance in terms of power and consumption. Two engines in particular stand out. The first is the 200 bhp 1750 TBi petrol engine that develops 320 Nm of torque continuously between 1400 and 5000 rpm. These impressive figures guarantee you superb acceleration without you having to work the gearbox. The second is the new 170 bhp 2.0 JTDM diesel engine that features a variable geometry turbocharger and delivers significantly lower fuel consumption. Both new engines already conform to future Euro 5 standards. One particularly important development is Alfa Romeo's introduction of a new Eco version incorporating special technical solutions capable of offering lower consumption and reduced exhaust emissions without penalising the driving pleasure and sports performance typical of all Alfa Romeos. The new Eco version is powered by the 120 bhp 1.9 JTDM 8v diesel engine. New performance 4-5 Sporting thoroughbreds. The new 159 engines satisfy all driving needs but excel in making you feel in complete control of a true sporting thoroughbred. Both the Saloon and Sportwagon offer a choice of three petrol and four diesel engines, all characterised by impressive power and elasticity. You can choose between the 2.2 JTS 185 bhp, the new 200 bhp 1750 TBi or the classic 3.2 JTS V6 260 bhp petrol engine. If you prefer a diesel, the 159 offers the unmistakable Turbo Diesel Common Rail JTDM in a choice of displacements from the 120 bhp 1.9 litre to the 210 bhp 2.4 litre, all equipped as standard with a "for life" particulate filter. 2.2 JTS 185 bhp Displacement Torque Transmission CO2 (g/km) Emissions standard 2198 cc 230 Nm at 4500 rpm manual 6-speed 218/220* Euro 4 1750 TBi 200 bhp 1742 cc 320 Nm at 1400 rpm manual 6-speed 189/194* Euro 5 3.2 JTS V6 260 bhp 3195 cc 322 Nm at 4500 rpm Manual 260/262* Euro 4 1.9 JTDM 120 bhp Eco 1910 cc 280 Nm at 2000 rpm manual 6-speed 138/140* Euro 4 1.9 JTDM 150 bhp 1910 cc 320 Nm at 2000 rpm manual 6-speed 150/153* Euro 4 1.9 JTDM 150 bhp QTRONIC 1910 cc 320 Nm at 2000 rpm automatic 6-speed 180/182* Euro 4 2.0 JTDM 170 bhp 1956 cc 360 Nm at 1750 rpm manual 6-speed 142/145* Euro 5 2.4 JTDM 210 bhp 2387 400 Nm at 1500 rpm manual 6-speed 179/181* Euro 4 2.4 JTDM 200 bhp QTRONIC 2387 cc 400 Nm at 2000 rpm automatic 6-speed 208/210* Euro 4 *Saloon/Sportwagon Engines 6-7 Feel in control behind the wheel That's exactly what happens when you grip the steering wheel and press down on the accelerator of an Alfa Romeo 159. Because that's when the raised double wishbone front suspension ­ a technology derived from the world of motor racing and applied exclusively by Alfa Romeo ­ comes into its own. This advanced suspension system ensures precise, linear steering, better traction and reduced pitching under braking. At the rear, multilink suspension controls wheel movement to ensure constantly optimised traction and grip. Alfa Romeo has developed the Electronic Q2 system precisely to make the most of this high performance suspension. Electronic Q2 uses the ESP control unit to create an effect similar to that of a limited slip differential, but using the car's braking system instead. The system combines the benefits of front wheel drive and four wheel drive to improve road holding, traction and stability. The end result is highly effective sporting suspension and a feeling of complete control that only the 159 can offer. The new 159 also incorporates all the usual electronic safety systems including ABS with EBD, VDC electronic stability control, ASR antislip control, HBA emergency braking assistance and Hill Holder for effortless hill-starts plus a servo-assisted braking system that ensures responsive and progressive braking action and minimal stopping distances. Technology and control 8-9 Performance crafted to your individual driving needs. In the Alfa Romeo 159 technology serves just one purpose: to keep everything simple. Take the QTRONIC gearbox for example. This highly evolved gearbox leaves you the maximum freedom of choice while always ensuring comfort and fluidity. The QTRONIC system lets you change gear either sequentially or automatically, to suit your own needs and road conditions. It even provides a choice of three shift modes*: Comfort for a more relaxed drive, Sport for maximum performance and Winter for safety over wet and slippery surfaces. The Up&Down Slope and Cornering functions also modify gear engagement timing to suit road conditions. The result? Significantly reduced fuel consumption with dramatically higher performance. The new Alfa Romeo 159: confidence behind the wheel. * Only for 2.4 JTDM Technology and performance 10 - 11 A 5-star rating. The ultimate in motoring safety. The 159 is built to protect. And a maximum score in Euro NCAP safety tests shows that this objective has been easily achieved. 5 stars for the torsional rigidity of the body shell made from high strength steel, dual-phase steel and multi-thickness steel sheet, rigidly joined transversely and vertically using laser welding technology. 5 stars for the non-deformable floor pan, lateral beams and rigid engine mounting structure. There are even front, side, knee and window airbags to provide total protection. And we've thought of your children's safety too and provided a three-point rear seat attachment for Isofix child seats. Alfa 159 Safety 12 - 13 On-board technology. The Alfa 159 comes with Blue&MeTM, the hands-free system with voice recognition based on Windows Mobile® technology. You can use your own voice or the function keys on the steering wheel to operate your mobile phone over a Bluetooth® connection or to listen to music from a media player or pen drive. If you feel happier when you receive clear directions to your destination, the 159 offers two solutions. Blue&MeTM Nav incorporates all the standard functions of Blue&MeTM plus a simple and user friendly pictographic sat-nav system. Alternatively, you can choose a map based sat-nav system with a 6.5" LCD display that also provides display and control functions for the radio, CD player and MP3 player plus voicecontrolled, hands-free, GSM mobile communications.
