Area of interest:

The good news continues inside, with a cabin that reeks of quality while clearly being of Italian descent. Move from a Mercedes C-Class or a Volkswagen Passat and the Alfa Romeo 159 has Latin flair in abundance, though not at the expense of usability. The seats are figure-hugging and it’s easy to get comfortable.
