Alfa 4C Alfa Romeo reveals updated version of new Porsche Cayman and Lotus Evora-rivalling mid-engined sports car
Alfa Romeo will display the stunning 4C Concept at Frankfurt with an updated paint scheme.
First unveiled at the Geneva Motor Show earlier this year in red, the mid-engined two seater Porsche Cayman rival is unchanged apart from its ‘Fluid Metal’ metallic silver paint scheme.
Measuring around four metres in length with a wheelbase of less than 2.4 metres, the 200bhp-plus concept showcases a new lightweight construction promising a kerb weight of under 850kg, mainly through the use of carbonfibre and aluminium in the body and subframe.
Power comes from the 1.75-litre turbocharged petrol engine used in the Giulietta, and features a twin dry-clutch transmission. Coupled with the lightweight construction, the concept points to a range of new small efficient Fiat group sports cars over the coming years.
Alfa says the car will feature its ‘DNA’ technology, which controls throttle response, steering and suspension settings. Expect a production version to go on sale next year.
