 Alfa Romeo 147 - Practicality 3/5
Alfa Romeo 147
Alfa Romeo 147
As a premium hatch, Alfa provides a good product at a great value. The diesel engine is a terrific addition to the Alfa 147 range ensuring fuel savings.

This Alfa 147 is more of a personal purchase rather than a family type car. The car is too small to adequately accommodate family activities. The car is compact yet has a decent amount of cabin space and has a decent amount of room in the hatch.

The Alfa 147’s fascia controls are large enough and easy enough to operate. The 147 includes steering wheel controls for easier access, and rotary ventilation controls with digital readouts.

The Alfa's 147 suspension has been improved and the car now delivers a smoother more enjoyable ride. Other than some wind noise that can be heard from the cabin, the car delivers a quiet ride, buffering out most road and engine noises. Seats can be adjusted for passenger comfort., along with the steering wheel which can also be adjusted for reach and rake.

The car is easily accessible for most front passengers. The doors are large and accommodating, and the seats are high enough that passengers can comfortably enter the car. Access to the rear however, is much more restricted and so is rear legroom. There isn’t an outside release for the hatch, so it must be opened via a key fob, or an access button located on the fascia. The 147 has an exceptionally attractive tailgate that allows decent access to the hatch area.

The 147 is a small car with a great 2.2 steering system that makes parking a much easier feat. Forward visibility is good, but rear visibility can be limited due to the rear screen and small external mirrors. However, Parking sensors are an option offered with the Alfa 147.
