Alfa 166 enters market in autumn
Alfa 166 is called the new model that will be on sale from the end of the
September and will complete, to the apex, the renewal of the Alfa Romeo models.
4.72 meters long and 1.81 m wide Alfa 166 has the prestige, comfort and
the equipment of a great sedan of the E class; integral but with the sport
temperament of all the Alfa Romeos. The design is fluent and expresses the
harmony of the shapes and the contents. The solid and muscular line gives
immediately the impression of an authoritative car, robust, firmly berthed to
the ground.
