The styling was not particularly aerodynamic but the drag coefficient was an acceptable 0. 41. Power came from an all-new 2. 5-litre V6 engine which generated 158 PS at 5,600 rpm using a total of six carburettors and a single, belt driven camshaft in each cylinder head. Power steering, power windows, central locking, electric wing mirrors and a 25% limited slip differential were standard, making the Alfa 6 competitively priced compared to similar saloons of that time where such equipment typically was a costly extra.
