    Perfectly complementing the current engine line-up, the new 16-valve, twin overhead camshaft 1742 cc petrol unit brings keen fuel efficiency to Alfa 159 Saloon and Sportwagon versions, along with lower CO 2 emissions, down to 189 g/km – resulting in a six-band drop in company car BIK taxation compared to the older    2.2 JTS engine.
