From 1910 until today, development of theAlfa Romeo brand has been unmistakable.
The perception of Alfa Romeo is a parallel
journey through the evolution of Italian andinternational motoring tradition. In books andﬁlms, Alfa Romeo is portrayed as an objectof desire, a status symbol, an image of beauty
and Italian expression.
The story goes that Henry Ford used to doff his
hat when he saw an Alfa Romeo pass by. And
that on the day he managed to beat the Alfas,
Enzo Ferrari cried like a baby. Alfa Romeo hascome through the last century, contributing many
memorable pages to the history of the motor car.
There are icons that have always been part ofthe collective global image of Alfa Romeo: its‘cuore sportivo’ or sporting heart, its indomitable
vitality, the sound of its engine, its eleganceof form, and Italian design.
Stylish good looks and muscular proportions
with that intrinsic touch of character, charm andsportiness, can only be Alfa Romeo. The 147
epitomises everything that is Alfa.

Elegant and sophisticated, metropolitan andsporty, the Alfa 147 exempliﬁes the best in Alfa
Romeo’s tradition. Charismatic good looks andperfect proportions with an intrinsic touch ofcharm and sportiness are qualities exclusive tothose that carry the iconic Milan marque.

Regarded by many as the world’s most beautiful
sports hatchback, the Alfa 147 has been fully
revitalised and enriched. Its bold proﬁle ishighlighted by a low grille, black mesh bumperand elongated headlamps. The bonnet lines slant
towards the windscreen, unveiling the dynamic,
masculine quality of this stylish model. Headlightclusters are swept back to further enhance theimpression of speed and athleticism.
Every detail of the rear section is an eye
catcher, combining elegance and sportiness.
The rear handles blend so smoothly into the car
body they almost go unnoticed in the ﬁve-door.
Distinctive, triangular tail-lights are designed toconvey an impression of strength and vitality.
The 147 is elegant, sophisticated and sporty
as only an Alfa Romeo can be.

controlled combustion, maximising fuel burn,minimising emissions and bringing new levelsof reﬁnement to diesel motoring.
A true Alfa Romeo, the 147 JTD re-deﬁnes
the genre with scintillating performanceand unbelievable economy.

Estimate range calculated on 4.7 litres per 100 km highway cycle fuel consumption combined with the 60 litre fuel capacity of the 147 JTD.

CONTROL

06

Alfawiki.nl

The power of the Alfa 147’s petrol and diesel
engines is matched to a choice of smooth,precise gear boxes essential for a true “driver’scar”. There is a quick shifting 5 speed manual
standard on petrol models and a 6 speed
manual standard on diesel models.
With the option of Selespeed, the Alfa 147petrol engine delivers smooth, rewarding driving
without having to take your hands off the wheel.
Twenty ﬁrst century transmission technology
offers the best of both worlds: the ease of nothaving to use the clutch pedal and the puredriving pleasure of shifting precisely when you
want to. In the sometimes unavoidable peakhour trafﬁc, select “City” mode that does awaywith driver gear selection altogether. Automaticgear selection when you need it most.
The Alfa 147 uses innovative technology to ensure
effective vehicle control in any situation. Enhanced
safety and driving pleasure are the result.

The double wishbone front suspension works
in perfect cohesion with the independent
McPherson strut rear suspension; providing
a unique combination of class leading driving
dynamics without compromising ride comfort.
The Alfa 147’s power-assisted brakes arenothing short of brilliant, with large 284mm
ventilated discs up front and 251mm solid reardiscs feature ﬂoating callipers. The Alfa 147’s
braking system also embraces the latest safety
technology including Bosch ABS with integrated
EBD, and Alfa’s advanced traction control andstability control systems.
Steering precision is another traditional
strong point of Alfa Romeo and the 147 isno exception. The 147’s steering lives up toexpectations, perfectly weighted to provide thedriver outstanding control and feedback in allconditions that may present themselves.
Fast, safe, comfortable, and fun.

SAFETY

Alfawiki.nl

Outstanding control gives the Alfa 147 excellent
active safety credentials – the ability to avoid anaccident in the ﬁrst place. Equally important are its
passive safety systems – the ones that look after
you if an accident does happen.
The Alfa 147’s passive safety story starts with
its rigid cabin structure, conceived by Alfa Romeo
as a survival cell. Anti-intrusion bars offer added
protection for the driver and passengers. Front
seat belts are equipped with pretensioners andload limiters.
Car safety is further enhanced with a Fire
Prevention System (FPS) that cuts out fueldelivery instantly and automatically in the eventof an accident.
Six airbags provide even more protection forevery occupant. In addition to the front-impact
airbags for the driver and passenger, the 147 hasside-bags built into the front seats, and window
curtain airbags for further protection against head
injuries in the event of a side impact.
The Alfa 147 also boasts passive anti-theft
devices: Alfa Code key, the immobiliser and asteering lock that works by friction to prevent thesteering column and lock mechanism from being
damaged if someone tries to force it.
