The new Alfa Romeo GT Coupe derives much of its design from the Alf 156. The Bertone Style Centre is responsible for its design and it promotes an original type styling which makes the car something fascinating to look at. The GT boasts an almost complete range of safety systems along as with smart engineering all packaged in a slick sports coupe.

Alfa Romeo GT Coupe shows up with a quadruple overhead camshaft, and has a 3.2 liter V6 engine similar to what can b found on the Alfa GTV. Thus the GT Coupe is a power filled and with its torque level it is able to easily cruise at 2000rpm in top gear. The GT Coupe is able to go from zero to sixty in under seven seconds and can reach speeds of just over 150 miles per hour.

The GT Coupe range there are six models, the Lusso which comes in there engine sizes, the Turismo has two models and the Q2. The Lusso and the Turismo come in both gas and diesel options and the Q2 comes in diesel only. The Coupe's transmission is a six-speed manual which is standard for the 1.9 diesel and the 3.2 V6 series but there is a five speed manual transmission with the 2 litre gas.

This vehicle's braking system is very strong and it touts 330 mm front discs that give excellent power when stopping. The GT Coupe brings to the table a very responsive power steering that is also speed sensitive.

The new Alfa Romeo GT Coupe has some very nice safety features such as six airbags, an integrated Fire Prevention System, and seatbelt pre-tensioners. There is also a high tech braking system along with traction control and stability systems. The braking system combines an ABS anti lock brake with a Vehicle Dynamic Control unit which helps to make cornering more stable. The Vehicle Dynamic Control unit is also supported by Anti-Slip Regulation thus limiting wheelspin that may occur when accelerating.

The GT has a very roomy interior. The rear seat folds down with a 60:40 split/folding and this gives enough space to comfortably seating passengers on the back seat. With the GT you can quickly convert its 320 cubic decimetre luggage area into a storage area boasting 905 cubic decimetres of space.

The flagship 3.2 V6 is fitted with leather interior and a top of the line Bose Hi Fi system that has MP3 capability. There is also a smart sports suspension, twin chromed exhaust pipes and 17 inch alloy wheels. There is also the option of having a climate control package that gives control over the quality of the air and sensory for rain and mist. You can also have xenon headlights that come with lamp washers, and 18 inch wheels. There is also a system that will connect the driver to a wide range of services through a phone link called CONNECT NAV+. The driver will use voice commands to operate the system. There is also a CD audio system that is available on the Alfa Romeo GT Coupe.
