Alfa Romeo GT Blackline for UK market

The Alfa GT is already one of the most eye-catching cars on the road, but now it’s been upgraded in a limited edition Blackline model that includes unique 18” alloy wheels, metallic black paint and interior sports styling . Most limited edition packs aren’t very well priced, but Alfa is offering this model at lower than the current entry-level version in the UK.

All limited edition Alfa GT BlackLine models feature a dramatic exterior look, with metallic black paint, satin effect wing mirrors, chrome exhaust and bespoke 18” alloy wheels. Inside, the cabin gets black leather sports seats and steering wheel with red stitching, aluminum sports pedals, an aluminum gearknob with red stitching on the gaiter, and a Bose sound system. The black-on-black look makes the GT look even more muscular than before, in our opinion.

Sadly, no engine or power upgrades have been made available, leaving the sporty looking car with performance figures well below expectations. The 165bhp 2.0 JTS petrol engine goes from 0-62mph in 8.7 seconds, while the 150bhp 1.9 JTDM diesel engine takes 9.6s to do the same.
