The undisputed star of the 2005 Geneva International Motor Show, the Alfa Romeo 159 made its market debut. The founder of the new family that will replace the Alfa Romeo 156, and therefore the heir to a successful model (over 680,000 units have been sold since 1997), this original saloon takes up the baton, to become the new benchmark in its segment.
