Description
The Alfa Romeo 2600 (series 106) was Alfa Romeo´s six-cylinder flagship and produced from 1961 to 1968.
It has become historically significant as the last Alfa Romeo to have been fitted with an inline six-cylinder engine having twin overhead camshafts.
This had been the traditional Alfa Romeo engine configuration since the 1920's, but gave way to four-cylinder engines as the factory oriented its production towards more economical mass-produced car models after the Second World War.
The 2600 was introduced at the 1962 Geneva Motor Show and, from a sales point of view, the models were not a success despite deserved acclaim for that excellent engine.
The flagship 2600 range was only a minor facelift of the 2000 range with a new engine, as this was all the factory could do with the resources available.
Since the 2000 itself had basically been a 1958 restyling of the 1900, it left the 2600 with running gear a dozen years old at introduction.
The 2600 Sprint made more of an impression....
