Mr Taurus,why they used multislip technology in premium platform,when it increases the weight for 50kgr?....also they won't make rwd versions of 159/brera so where is the point for a modular platform that increases the weight.

a platform is used for two generations of cars so is a choice that doesn't have to do with 159/brera only but with other cars as the highend range of the brand also and their successors...except of that multisplit structure is a much more sofisticated choice and provides cutting edge torsional rigidity....

bisognerebbe conoscere anche il prezzo della a/4 e della serie 3. Giusto per confermare la tesi.....

Germania

159 parte da 25.900 euro

3er parte da 25.750 euro

A4 parte da 23.900 euro

Qui in Svizzera le Alfa costano sempre molto meno caro delle tedesche ma la ragione non la so...

So it's a solution also for saving costs....cause they could develop an exclusive rwd platform for 169,maseratina.

Also i think that we cannot compare the torsional rigidity of different brands because there is not exist a certified way of measurement.....each one measures the chassis in each point it wants.Also in order to have a better view we should know the torsional rigidity of points contact of the suspension,differentials,engine,semiaxle,with frame and hypoframe that supports all this stuff.

Not really at least for 159...cause the premium floorpan used cost way over the conventional floorpans...that use 3 series or A4...

No you can normally compare the floorpans of different brands all use the same type of measurement don't be confused by the fact that other announce daNM/rad or NM/rad or KGM/rad or KGM/deg or lb.ft/deg or lb.ft/rad is very simple to compare and find how many lb.ft/deg are X KGM/rad for example.

Francia

159 a partire da 27.200 euro(1.9JTDm)

Impression o progression?

Una 159 150cv progression quanto mi costa in francia?

Today we put an 159 1.9JTS in the dynamometer and it showed 160hp with only 600km!!!..NICE!!
