The Alfa Romeo 145 and 146 were a pair of compact hatchback cars produced by the Italian manufacturer Alfa Romeo from 1994 to 2001. They were the successors to the Alfa Romeo 33, and were positioned as sporty and stylish alternatives to more conventional hatchbacks like the Ford Fiesta and Vauxhall Corsa. Both models shared the same platform and engine options, but differed in their styling and bodywork. The 145 was the more conventionally styled of the two, with a rounded, boxy design. The 146, on the other hand, featured a more distinctive, wedge-shaped front end and a sloping roofline, giving it a more sporty appearance. The 145 and 146 were available with a range of petrol and diesel engines, ranging from a small 1.4-liter petrol to a powerful 2.0-liter turbocharged petrol. The most popular models were those equipped with the 1.6-liter petrol engine, which offered a good balance of performance and fuel economy. Both models offered a choice of five-speed manual or four-speed automatic transmissions. While both models were praised for their handling and driving dynamics, they were also known for their reliability issues, particularly with their electrical systems. Despite these flaws, the Alfa Romeo 145 and 146 remain popular choices for enthusiasts, thanks to their unique styling, driving experience, and relative affordability. Their compact size made them ideal for navigating tight city streets, while their sporty nature provided a rewarding drive. While production ended in 2001, these vehicles continue to be a nostalgic reminder of Alfa Romeo’s innovative spirit and captivating design.
