Designed by Bertone, in collaboration with Alfa Romeo Centro Stile
at Arese, in Milan, the new Alfa GT combines renowned engineering
prowess and a comprehensive range of safety systems with elegant,
sports coupe coachwork, evoking Alfa Romeo's peerless heritage of
benchmark GT cars, from the 1900 SS to the Giulietta Sprint and Giulia
Sprint GT.
At the top of the range, a quadruple overhead camshaft, all-aluminum
3.2-liter 24-valve V6 is the same remarkable engine as that fitted
to the Alfa GTV, Spider and 166 models. This superlative powerplant's
breadth of torque allows the new Alfa GT to cruise effortlessly in
sixth gear at just 2000 rpm, yet return performance figures of 0-62
mph in 6.7 seconds and a maximum speed in excess of 150 mph.
The 3.2-liter V6 naturally aspirated petrol unit is mated to 6-speed
manual transmission.
The GT 3.2 V6 chassis is based on that of the 156 GTA, with revisions
to spring, damper and anti-roll bar settings.
The Alfa GT 3.2 V6's powerful braking system features 330 mm ventilated
front discs for fade-free stopping power. The Alfa GT offers highly
direct, lively and responsive speed-sensitive power assisted steering,
with a rack requiring just 2.2 turns lock-to-lock.
The sporting lines and compact dimensions of the new Alfa GT belie
a surprisingly spacious, flexible interior. The 60:40 split/folding
rear seat offers comfortable accommodation for passengers sitting
in the back, while allowing for the rapid conversion of the 320 cubic
decimeter luggage compartment into a flat load platform with an impressive
905 cubic decimeters of stowage space.
The 3.2 V6 features a full leather interior, and the acoustic sophistication
of a Bose Hi-Fi system with MP3 compatibility. The flagship 3.2 V6
also adds sports suspension, spoked 17" (18" optional) alloy
wheels and twin chromed exhausts.
