The Alfa Romeo 145 and 146 were compact hatchbacks produced by the Italian automaker Alfa Romeo from 1994 to 2001. These models represented a departure from the traditional Alfa Romeo design language, featuring a more modern and angular aesthetic. They were built on the Tipo platform, also used for the Fiat Bravo/Brava and Lancia Delta, and offered a dynamic driving experience thanks to their front-wheel drive setup and a range of powerful petrol and diesel engines. The 145, the sportier of the two, featured a distinctive three-door body style, while the 146 offered a more practical five-door configuration. Both models were available in various trim levels, catering to different needs and budgets. The Alfa Romeo 145 and 146 were praised for their sharp handling, responsive engines, and stylish exterior design. However, they were criticized for their build quality, which was not on par with other European cars of the era. Despite their flaws, these models remained popular in Europe, particularly amongst younger drivers who were drawn to their sporty character and affordable price. The 145 and 146 were eventually replaced by the Alfa Romeo 147 in 2001, marking the end of an era for the compact hatchback segment at Alfa Romeo. Today, the 145 and 146 remain sought-after by enthusiasts and collectors, appreciated for their unique styling and driving dynamics, despite their age and inherent quirks.
