The A.L.F.A. 15 HP was a medium sized car made by A.L.F.A., the Milan company that later became Alfa Romeo, from 1911 to 1913. It was derived from the 12 HP and kept that car four cylinder engine of 2413 cc, but a compression ratio of 4.2 to 1 raised output to about 24 hp at 2400 rpm. Like its predecessor it had a front engine and rear wheel drive, now with a three speed gearbox and a parking brake, and the track was 1300 mm. Buyers could choose a torpedo tourer or a saloon body. Designed by Giuseppe Merosi, the 15 HP had a top speed of about 95 km/h and was priced at 9,500 lire, the same as the 12 HP it replaced.
