The Alfa Romeo 169 is an all new rear wheel drive design study from the Italian automaker and is slated to replace the Alfa Romeo 166 due to the current sedan’s lackluster sales performance. Announced back in 2008 the project has been pushed back multiple times due to the global economic crisis and is now presumed to appear in 2011. Alfa Romeo intends on making the new car the quintessential executive sedan aimed at competing head to head with high end automakers like Mercedes Benz and Porsche priced at around $62,000. After the Chrysler FIAT merger, the Alfa Romeo 169 has most recently been scheduled to be built upon the American automaker’s LX platform and is set to be sold in the U.S. market.
