Information
Constructed by Italdesign of Turin, Italy, in 1997, the Italdesign Scighera or Alpha Romeo Schighera (pronounced Shigeera). Derived from the 164, the Scighera has an all-aluminum body and a frame structure made of aluminum-carbon fiber composite. The chassis's use of aluminum and carbon fiber kept the weight down to 1450 kg.
The Scighera is powered by an Alfa Romeo Twin Turbo 3-liter V6 engine and is capable of accelerating from 0-62 mph in only 3.8 seconds. With a top speed of 186 mph, the Scighera featured a Bi-Turbo V6 motor with 3.0 liters rated at 400 horsepower at 7,500 rpm. The four-wheel drive system was inspired by the Alfa Romeo 155. There was also a compressor to make sure that there was enough power, even in the lower revs, this meant that the turbo got enough power and pressure when it was needed in the lower revs.
The side windows of the Italdesign Scighera were opened electronically like wings upwards, while the other doors opened as normal ones. You could convert your coupe into a cabrio if you were to take out the windows. The Scighera measured 4320 mm long, 1980 mm wide, and 1145 mm high.
The Italdesign Scighera is featured in the 1998 racing computer game Need for Speed III: Hot Pursuit.
