2009 Alfa Romeo 159 1750 TBi

ALFA ROMEO 159 1750 TBi




Starting from April 2009, the new Alfa Romeo 159 1750 TBi will be available with a brand new 1750 cc turbocharged petrol engine and develops 200 HP between 4,750 and 5,500 rpm with 320 Nm of torque at only 1,400 rpm. This engine takes the Alfa Romeo 159 1750 TBi to an impressive top speed of 235 kph and accelerates it from 0 to 100 kph in just 7.7 seconds. The 200 HP Alfa Romeo 159 1750 TBi is therefore a true representative of Alfa’s exclusive motoring lifestyle. Far from being a mere ‘means of transport’, the new Alfa Romeo 159 1750 TBi is a real driver’s car.


The 159 1750 TBi boasts very honorable performance: 0 to 100 km / h in 7.7 seconds, standing start kilometer in 28.9 seconds and a V-Max announced to 235 km / h. However, as for the Delta, these eloquent figures do not reflect fully the reality of the road: if the throttle response is immediate, the 4-cylinder 200 hp broadcasts its way too progressive for us to really talk about sportsmanship .

2009 Alfa Romeo Mi.To

ALFA ROMEO MI.TO



 An up-to-date and innovative car, a name redolent of history. The name Mi.To has great evocative resonance for Alfa Romeo, since it was chosen as a sign of a deep-seated link between the past and future of the brand: between Milan, the city of design that brought the car’s style into being, and Turin, which will be responsible for its industrial production. A decision that highlights the brand’s strong desire to consolidate its Milanese roots.


The greatest thought has also gone into defining the dimensions, which add up to a compact and dynamic shape: the Alfa Romeo Mi.To is 4.06 metres long, 1.44 metres high and 1.72 metres wide.
Style, design, and more: performance and technology must always be top-of-the-range in an Alfa Romeo. As all the brand’s models, the Alfa Romeo Mi.To is able to appeal to the most demanding customers with its exciting driveability, determined partly to the Alfa DNA system. This control acts on the engine, brakes, steering, suspension and gearbox, allowing three different vehicle behaviour modes based on the driving style best suited to the situation or the customer’s wishes: supersporting (Dynamic), town driving (Normal), maximum safety even in difficult grip conditions (All-Weather). Mi.To is the first car in its segment to offer such innovative technological content.
Great performances are guaranteed by a range of 4 engines, all Turbo (petrol and diesel), that currently range from 90 hp up to 155 hp, with the range due to be extended by even higher power ratings.

Today Alfa Romeo gives us enough patience with the first official photos of the MiTo GTA stamped (for Gran Turismo Allegerita), the sports brand badge shelved since the 156, released in 2002. Surprise, however, it is primarily through a concept ... quasi-series that bouncing transalpine will come to us.




True or pseudo-concept novelty, it is always the little Arese is up to our expectations.

Aesthetically, it "merely" exacerbate the already aggressive style of base MiTo. Fairly moderate front, totally outrageous at Alloy wheels 19 "or to adopt a huge rear diffuser and dual exhaust center for less eloquent. Suffice to say it will be difficult to miss without noticing.

Compared to the standard MiTo, the GTA version is also distinguished by its weight lowered through the use of specific materials: carbon fiber spoiler at the rear, flag and mirror caps, aluminum for elements of the braking system, suspension and chassis parts.

Inside, the MiTo GTA subtle blend of sportiness and luxury. Sports seats, the floor covering incorporating the design of the tread Pirelli or door sills and aluminum pedals marked GTA coexist with the massive presence of Alcantara © coating on dashboard, the pavilion and amounts.

Other signs of virility interior, there are also new air vents, a sports steering wheel and gear lever knob and a special tachometer graduated to ... 300 km / h! However, it is unlikely that the storage for helmets competition (sic) and seat belts 4 point crossing the course of the series production.

Salon Geneva 2009 - Alfa Romeo MiTo GTA
Let us now look at this dish MiTo GTA, the engine of course! Not surprisingly, there is an evolution of the new 4-cylinder direct injection turbo 1750 TBI. But while rumors evoked a power of 230 bhp Alfa engineers have decided to make a small gift with ten additional horsepower, or 240 hp and a total power of 137.3 bhp specific hallucinating / l. The front wheels scream ahead!

Better to go to the frenzy, Alfa Romeo MiTo has changed its consistently: 20 mm lowered ride height, stiffened suspension, new front axle geometry with aluminum arms or a novel active suspension system. Developed in collaboration with Magneti Marelli, the latter compensates for load transfer in suspensions interacting with brakes and steering, more directly for even more efficiency.

Obviously, seems particularly pampered Alfa MiTo GTA's. We look forward to the final model ... but especially the first test. Mini Cooper S had better watch out!

M 430 ... This figure vaguely remember something like air intakes drop ... Marangoni Italian tire manufacturer, had a clear idea in mind with this first prepared on the basis of the new Alfa Romeo MiTo . The car, produced by the TRC tuner in Florence, will be exhibited at the Salon d'Essen before the turn of events of tuning Europe. The purpose of this car is to use the new display high pneumatic performance Mythos, which has the interesting distinction of being red, a trend that will inevitably one day or another in the streets now that the technology of pigmentation is developed.




The interior is retapisse and shift knob speed, hand brake handle and pedals receive Swarovski crystals, and the whole is a significant example of the Italian tuning.


But beyond the tires, the car is modified in depth. For the body kit and scissor doors the images speak for themselves, and in the two-tone dress hiding suspensions KW adjustable plate, lowered 40mm compared to the production car and Tarox brakes to 10 (! ) pistons associated with composite discs of 330 mm diameter. The turbocharger has a new turbine Mariani with the new exhaust allow the 1.4-liter turbo developing 220 hp.


And now the body, radical and extreme as a few other cars in the same segment: about the aesthetic package, which lowers the car by more than 4 cm, the various air vents with cuts and nicks, extractor, the opening system the doors. Of each of its elements, in practice, as well as accessories - red gums by eighteen inches, Swarovski stones inside - do not help to make it more simple.
