Details about the Alfa Romeo 4C
The 4C is available in coupé and Spider variants – as you might expect merely from the name, the Spider costs quite a bit more than your average coupé.
The 29th International Automobile Festival voted the 4C ‘Most Beautiful Car of the Year’ in 2013
The 4C is not available with a manual transmission, only automatic.
The 4C’s low weight means that the vehicle is not only efficient, but faster than similar cars on the market such as the Porsche Cayman.
How safe is the Alfa Romeo 4C?
Unfortunately for potential buyers, too few 4Cs have been produced to justify the Euro NCAP crash-testing model. However, numerous reviewers have suggested that the carbon-fibre body and standard safety features should be enough to dispel worries. Auto Express, for instance, has given the 4C a rating of 4/5 stars for safety.
The standard safety features, including occupant airbags and stability control, should also help to reduce the risk of, or mitigate, an accident. Ask your insurer what extra safety and security features you can add in return for lower premiums.
