New Alfa Romeo 156 has changes in external and internal design, updated equipment and a new diesel engine of 2.4 liters and 175 hp.
2004 Alfa Romeo 156 Sedan
Alfa Romeo 156
This new version, as the entire range has a good relationship between price and equipment, when compared with those brands Alfa Romeo wishes to competition.
Alfa Romeo 156
The headlights and air inlets are larger, though it takes a structure similar to the 147 or the most recent GT Coupe, is distinguished from them by the purity of line. The back changes the shape of the bumper and the pilots.
Alfa Romeo 156
The dimensions change slightly in saloon version is 5 mm long, 2 mm narrower and 15 mm higher. Changes across the range Alfa Romeo 156 (family saloon and Sportwagon), except GTA versions, which remain with their current appearance.
Alfa Romeo 156
In interior design there are common features with the 147, like the dashboard bicolor. Typically, the dashboard has a surface treatment by laser, optionally, can be wrapped in leather, something unusual in this type of car. For some parts of the inner lining there is a new microfiber fabric, called "Alfatex.
Alfa Romeo 156
There is little space. Something is missing longitudinal travel in the driver's seat (so people will see higher), legroom in the rear seats and height in the rear seats. The trunk of the sedan measures 378 l of the Sportwagon, 360 and shortly in any case.
Alfa Romeo 156
The main innovation is an in-dash monitor, in the basic version, the computer displays the information and the 'check control'. Under the monitor are the controls of the sound equipment and a climate control (two zones in some versions). The standard stereo has six speakers.
Alfa Romeo 156
Alfa Romeo maintains the range of the previous Alfa Romeo 156 engine, except that a new 2.4 JTD 175 hp replaces the previous 140 hp. It's the same five-cylinder, but now with four valves per cylinder and an advanced injection system (Multijet). It gives maximum torque of 385 Nm at 2,000 rpm. The benefits and consumption of the Alfa Romeo 156 with this engine are very good.
2004 Alfa Romeo 156 Sportwagon
Alfa Romeo 156
The rest of the range includes three petrol engines: two four-cylinder and a six-cylinder (not the GTA). It is also manufactured with a 1.8 liter 140 hp.
The response of the direct injection JTS engine is very good. It is strong enough at low speed and under very high push.
Alfa Romeo 156
The new five-cylinder engine and 2.4 liter engine capacity is remarkable smoothness, silence and strength. Overall, it's better than other diesel engines that power the 163 hp Volvo, Mercedes 170 hp or 180 hp Audi.
Alfa Romeo 156
Alfa Romeo also has three types of change: manual five-or six-speed automatic "Selespeed" five marches or "Q-System 'of four. The frame does not change substantially. The wheelbase, the approved routes and weight are the same.
Alfa Romeo 156
The suspension is structurally the same; the Sportwagon Self can bring a system on the rear axle. The brakes themselves are changing, now carries 276 mm rear discs, instead of 251. The address also remains unchanged, with a diameter of rotation rather large (11.1 m of the four or five cylinders, six of the 11.6).
Alfa Romeo 156
The Alfa Romeo 156 has the same qualities that security has always been active and is satisfactory for those seeking a true feel "sporty". The less expensive versions have optional stability control and you have the most expensive series.
Alfa Romeo 156
It led two versions of the new Alfa Romeo 156, both with saloon bodywork, the 2.4 JTD and 2.0 JTS. The previous five-cylinder JTD was fine but was nothing special compared to its competition. This, however, it has much stronger than the five-cylinder Volvo 163 hp version, rather than the V6 version of Audi's 180 hp and is the level of the Mercedes five-cylinder (170 hp); if not even better.
Alfa Romeo 156
The impression given is much less power from 2,000 rpm to nearly 4,500 (the red zone begins at 5,000, but does not go up there either). The throttle response is quick, though not a sudden when engine is accelerated to bottom.
Alfa Romeo 156
In constant motion by road, the engine would not normally be heard unless they are driving too fast, in which case there is a serious background noise is not very intense. Acceleration has a strong unique sound, which does not seem upset or is clearly Diesel.
Alfa Romeo 156
The six-speed box is a great success, but the developments are too short. It reaches the maximum speed (225 km / h) at 4,300 rpm, when the regime of maximum power is 4000 rpm.
Alfa Romeo 156
An engine and work very well with sixth-adjusted to achieve the maximum speed at maximum power regime (and would be 56.2 mph 1,000 rpm) and even slightly longer, as up relief.
Alfa Romeo 156
The stability of the Alfa Romeo 156 remains at the highest level, although the Alfa Romeo 156 has been in the market since 1997. It has everything to make it enjoyable to drive and also secure a good response from the leadership, sensitivity to bend down, quick reactions and a sharp but not stability control that makes driving (not off).
Alfa Romeo 156
The steering wheel is very sensitive to bumps. If you are driving fast on a road bump, hear knocks from the suspension and steering wheel are visible on the saloons rather than others of this type.
Alfa Romeo 156
The grip on the dry Continental in this car is much better than the Firestone. Theoretically, 2.4 JTD is at a disadvantage because it weighs 100 kg more than the JTS, but the truth is that the Continental tires had worn better steering feel and more-seemingly-grip. In the Alfa Romeo 156 JTS I led Firestone tires were a lot of noise on the curve but did not give much grip.
Alfa Romeo 156
The seat of the Alfa Romeo 156 is higher than at other saloons, which do not drive high note, those who prefer to be close to the ground we would be more comfortable in another seat. If the person driving is high or going straight, hardly see because of the instrumentation steering wheel cover.
Alfa Romeo 156
The new microfiber upholstery 'Alfatex' has a touch between suede and Alcantara. It is only in coatings for doors and the outer parts of the seats, the center is a thick fabric of yarn that has the appearance of being fresh.
Alfa Romeo 156
The engine is based on the current of the same cylinder JTD (1,910 cm ³) with several modifications. The injection system is a Multijet works with a maximum injection pressure of 1,400 bars and can provide up to four injections per cycle (not five as in the prototypes). Increase the number of injections softness benefits and allows the engine to burn fuel to heat the catalyst (particles or burn), but can improve performance.
Alfa Romeo 156
The stock now has two camshafts and four valves per cylinder. Unlike other diesel engines with four valves per cylinder, two intake ducts of each cylinder seem to have the same form and function; No one planned for low speed and load. The turbocharger is a Garrett variable.
Alfa Romeo 156
In the construction of the engine there are other changes, primarily to handle the pressure. There are elements that change, as the crankshaft or connecting rods, and modifications to the lubrication system, including a radiator and a new oil pump.
Alfa Romeo 156
The maximum power increases by 21 percent compared with the release of eight valves (from 116 to 140 hp) and maximum torque by 11 percent (from 275 to 304 Nm). The amount of torque that the engine gave a top eight valves, it gives a comprehensive margin: 1,750 to 3,250 rpm. It has a lot of strength to their engine capacity, does not reach the level of some engines from Volkswagen or BMW, but it is the best in this regard.
Alfa Romeo 156
Both the 147 and Alfa Romeo 156 that carry this engine have manual gearbox six speeds. Transmission developments are set to match the regime of maximum power and maximum speed in top gear. Ie, Alfa Romeo has not put one sixth of relief. However, the engine speed to 120 km / h in sixth is about 2,300 rpm.
Alfa Romeo 156
In performance, Alfa Romeo 156, 140 hp is within normal for a car with this power, weight and aerodynamic resistance. Consumption is also an intermediate zone: spend more than those with the Volkswagen engine of 131 hp or the BMW 320D, like the Mondeo TDCi and models unless more capacity.
Alfa Romeo 156
There is an engine of 2.4 liters and five-cylinder with four valves per cylinder head and cylinder injection type which has the 1.9 liter The power of this new 2.4 JTD will be around 170 hp. Alfa Romeo touching the body and extends the range of the engine Alfa Romeo 156.
Alfa Romeo 156
By the time Alfa Romeo sells gasoline, version 1.6 liters (120 hp) and 2.5 liters (192 hp). Diesel is sold at 1.9 JTD (116 bhp) and 2.4 JTD 150 HP.
The price increases between € 730 and € 1585 in relation to equivalent versions of the previous range, but the major equipment and in some cases seems to offset this potential increase.
Alfa Romeo 156
The main changes consist primarily of equipment added to the Alfa Romeo 156 elements of 147 like stability control, head airbags, air conditioning with automatic recirculation, automatic windscreen wipers and a multifunction display on the dashboard. All these elements are standard.
Alfa Romeo 156
Optionally, the array 2002 can have xenon headlights (not available in the 147), developer of speed (optional on Progression of the rest in series), the radio controls on the steering wheel (also optional on Progression and serial the rest) and Isofix fixings.
Alfa Romeo 156
Practically does not change the outside, hardly known for tinkering with the design of the front bumper because the bumper moldings are now painted in the same color as the bodywork. Inside there is a different design, especially in the dashboard, and better materials.
Alfa Romeo 156
The engine range now includes a gasoline engine with direct injection. It has 2 liters displacement and 165 hp (replaces the current 2 liters 155 hp). Still sold with the engine 1.6 (120 hp).
Alfa Romeo 156
The JTD Diesel slightly changed, the 1.9 is the same with the 147 (116 hp) and 2.4 increases in maximum power (140 to 150 hp). Neither has the power system Multijet will be available later this year in a version 1.9 JTD 136 hp, both for the Alfa Romeo 156 to the 147.
Alfa Romeo 156
Another novelty is a sports version called TAG, which has a V6 engine from 3.2 liters displacement and 250 HP maximum. It has a six-speed box, either manual or automatic with sequential-type command Selespeed.Source URL: https://carsstyling.blogspot.com/2009/10/new-alfa-romeo-156.html
