Alfetta 2.4 TD

116 · 1972–1983RWD

Diesel Alfetta of the pre-1983 range, powered by a 2.4-litre VM turbodiesel that gave the transaxle saloon far greater economy and torque than the twin-cam petrols, though at the cost of outright performance.

STORY

The Alfa Romeo Alfetta, launched in 1972, took its name from the championship-winning 158/159 Grand Prix cars and used a rear-mounted transaxle with a de Dion rear axle for near-ideal weight distribution. Offered as a saloon and the elegant GT/GTV coupé, it was praised for its balanced handling. It remained in production, with a 1983 facelift, until 1987.
