About the 159 1.9 JTDm 16V 150

The 2005 Alfa Romeo 159 1.9 JTDm 16V 150 is a front-drive turbodiesel saloon of 1,560 kg with 148 bhp, which works out at 95 bhp per tonne. Front drive caps what it can put down off the line — 60 ft takes 2.53 s — so most of what it has to give arrives once it is already moving. Against the 14,946 cars in the set it is the 7,486th quickest to 60 mph, and the 123rd quickest of the 268 Alfa Romeos here. Its 84.5 mph trap speed sits about where its 0-60 puts it, so it launches and pulls in roughly equal measure. The simulation is trimmed to 2 of 2 published acceleration figures for this car.

Picked for a fair race, not just a matching 0-60: pace, power-to-weight and body shape all count, and at most one is from the same maker.

Questions

What is the Alfa Romeo 159 1.9 JTDm 16V 150 0-60 time?

The Alfa Romeo 159 1.9 JTDm 16V 150 reaches 60 mph in 8.49 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 7,486th quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.

What is the Alfa Romeo 159 1.9 JTDm 16V 150 quarter mile time?

16.57 s at 84.5 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 10.67 s and clears the first 60 ft in 2.53 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.

How much power does the Alfa Romeo 159 1.9 JTDm 16V 150 have?

148 bhp and 1,560 kg, which is 95 bhp per tonne. It is front-drive, turbodiesel, with 6 gears and a quoted top speed of 211 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.

What cars are comparable to the Alfa Romeo 159 1.9 JTDm 16V 150?

Closest here on pace: Skoda Rapid 1.4 TSI 122 (8.49 s), Skoda Rapid 1.4 TSI Green Tec 122 (8.50 s), Opel Astra GTC 1.4 Turbo ecoFLEX 140 (8.50 s). Each one can be raced against the Alfa Romeo 159 1.9 JTDm 16V 150 in the panel at the top of this page. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.

Are these real measured times?

No. Every figure on this page is produced by a physics simulation, not by a stopwatch at a drag strip. The Alfa Romeo 159 1.9 JTDm 16V 150 is modelled from its published kerb mass, rated power, drivetrain and gearing, then trimmed until it reproduces 2 of its 2 published acceleration figures. Conditions are the same for every car in the set: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.

Figures regenerated 2026-10-12. Every number on this page is computed by the simulator at build time, so the page and the app can never disagree.
