The new Alfa Romeo 4C Sports Concept will receive its UK public debut at the rapidly approaching 2011 Goodwood Festival of Speed, which takes place from July 1 to 3.
Seen for the first time at the Geneva Salon in March, Italy’s answer to the Lotus Elise boasts a lightweight chassis with power coming from a mid-mounted 1.75-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine delivering 200 ponies to the rear wheels. It can complete the 0-62mph (100km/h) sprint in less than 5 seconds and reach a top speed of 155mph (250km/h). Production is set to start in 2012.
The two-seater 4C concept will be joined at Alfa Romeo’s exhibition stand by an array of models from the Italian firm’s past and present including the updated MiTo Quadrifoglio Verde, which will also make its UK public debut, and the historic Alfa 6C 3000CM, 6C 1750GS, 750 Competizione and the 33 TT 12.
Alfa Romeo will also participate in the Supercar Paddock with the 8C Spider that will make its way up the historic Goodwood Hill.
