The Alfa Romeo 156 (known internally as the type 932) is a compact executive car introduced by Italian automaker Alfa Romeo at the 1997 Frankfurt Motor Show[2]as the replacement for the 155. Cars were assembled at Fiat Group factory in Pomigliano d'Arco, Italy and GM's facility in Rayong[1], Thailand (short period for Asian markets). From 1997 to 2005 the 156 was produced 680,000 examples,[3] which was a huge success for the brand.

Styling

Car was designed by Alfa Centro Stile under control of head designer Walter de'Silva. Its distinctive style with its high curved flanks, retro styled front door handles, hidden rear door handles, dramatic deep grill and sweeping profile made it, to some, the best looking car in its class. This is the car that introduced 'hidden' door handle to the mainstream, although these were first utilised on the Fiat Coupe back as far as 1994 the idea of using them on the rear doors was new and had the effect of converting a saloon car into a coupe lookalike. The design was influenced by three historical Alfa Romeo models 1900, Giulietta and Giulia.[4] The Cd value was 0.31.[5] Walter Maria de’Silva (born February 27, 1951 in Lecco, Italy) is an car designer from Italy, currently in charge of SEAT, Audi and Lamborghini design. ...

The drag coefficient (Cd, Cx or Cw, depending on the country) is a dimensionless quantity that describes a characteristic amount of aerodynamic drag caused by fluid flow, used in the drag equation. ...


Development

The 156 was a highly developed front-wheel drive car (the Cross/Sport Wagon Q4 offered four-wheel drive in left-hand drive markets) with a double wishbone front suspension and all independent multi link rear suspension[6](it's a common mistake to think that car have McPherson rear suspension, because shock absorber has combined with the spring, but this isn't McPherson). The floor pan is also the same as on the Alfa 146 but is modified to accept the new suspension design. The engine range encompassed 4-cylinder Twin Spark (1.6 120 PS, 1.8 144 PS and 2.0 155 PS) 16 valve engines with variable valve timing, along with the L4 1.9 8v (105, 110 and 115 PS) and L5 2.4 10v (136, 140 and 150 PS) JTD common rail turbodiesel engines. Until January 2002, the range-topping engine was the venerable DOHC 2.5 L 24-valve V6 engine rated at 190 and after 2001 192 PS. 2002 saw the introduction of the 2.0 L JTS engine, gasoline direct injection unit offering more low end torque and more power (165 PS) than the Twin Spark. Common rail direct fuel injection is a modern variant of direct injection system for diesel engines. ... A double overhead cam (also called a dual overhead cam, DOHC, or twincam) engine is a type of internal combustion engine where the camshafts that operate the intake and exhaust valves are mounted above the cylinders, and where there are separate camshafts for inlet and exhaust valves. ... or GDi is a variant of fuel injection employed in modern two-stroke and four stroke petrol engines. ...


Starting from 1999 Selespeed sequential transmission came as an option to 2.0 Twin Spark engine and 4-speed automatic Q-System to 2.5 L V6 engine.[7] Selespeed is name of electrohydraulic manual transmission used in Alfa Romeo cars and it is developed by Magneti Marelli. ...


A significant addition to the 156 range was the Sportwagon station wagon in 2000, a first attempt at an estate car of this size for the company. Sportwagon was also available with Boge-Nivomat self-levelling hydropneumatic rear suspension.[8] Estate car body style (Saab 95) A station wagon (United States usage), wagon (Australian usage, though station wagon is widely used) or estate car (United Kingdom usage) is a car body style similar to a sedan car but with an extended rear cargo area. ... 2000 (MM) was a leap year starting on Saturday of the Gregorian calendar. ...


In 2001 engines were upgraded, engines complied with Euro3 norm and outputed 120 PS (1.6), 140 PS (1.8), 150 PS (2.0) and 192 PS (2.5). Euro III (popularly referred to as Euro3) is the emission standard for vehicles introduced in the EU in 1999. ...

Alfa Romeo 156 GTA
Alfa Romeo 156 GTA

In September 2001, the 156 GTA and Sportwagon GTA were launched at the Frankfurt Motor Show. The very first GTA was sold on-line auction from September 13 to 23, the duration of the Frankfurt Motor Show. Winning bid was 48,691.26 euros, which was donated to "Telethon" charity fund.[9] Equipped with a 3.2 L V6 with six-speed manual transmission or Selespeed (paddles in steering wheel, hydraulically operated clutchless manual gearbox), the GTA variants were aimed at the performance market. The GTA subsequently stopped production in October 2005, citing poor sales and the upcoming replacement to the 156, the Alfa Romeo 159. The GTA variants boasted at least 250 PS, had a lowered and stiffened suspension, a distinctive body kit and leather interior.

2002 also saw the arrival of a facelifted interior with different matte-finish surfacing and chrome highlights. The 165 PS (2.0 JTS) replaced the 2.0 L Twin Spark engine, diesel engines were also uprated. New version used the 147's dual-zone digital climate control and CanBus serial wiring system. A wider range of options including xenon lighting, tele-informatics and a Bose stereo system were available. Also ESP and slip control ASR came as standard.

2nd series (2003) Alfa Romeo 156 Sportwagon

Late 2003 saw the launch of a facelifted 156, with new front and rear fascias designed by Giorgetto Giugiaro. There was also a wider range of interior colour options from this date. This mid-life facelift divided opinion with some preferring the prettier pre-facelift look with others singing the praises of the newer more aggressive demeanour of the latter models. The GTA models never received the exterior update. Diesel engines suffered a major re-working, new 4v/cylinder heads were added, second stage common rail injection with 1400bar maximum injection pressure with up to 5 injections per cycle for lower noise, consumption and higher performance. They were rated at 140/150 PS for L4 1.9 16v and 175 PS for L5 2.4 20v.

In 2004, four-wheel drive versions arrived to some markets, which were known as the Crosswagon Q4 and Sportwagon Q4 (both using the 1.9L 150 PS JTD engine). These cars were equipped with a Torsen four-wheel drive system and raised ride heights (Crosswagon 65 mm higher and Sportwagon 20 mm).[10] Torsen traction, an automotive part adding differential, was invented by American Vernon Gleasman and manufactured by the Gleason Corporation. ...


The 156 sedan was discontinued late in 2005 in Europe, Q4 Crosswagon is still in production, 156 is to be phased out in other markets in 2006 with the forthcoming 159, which also spawned the Brera, the 2-door coupe that replaces the GTV along with its convertible sister the new Spider.
