Introduced at the Geneva Motor Show, the Alfa Romeo 4C is powered by an engine Alfa calls the “1750 Turbo Petrol.” The inventive all-aluminum four-cylinder features direct injection and a revolutionary control system that eliminates turbo lags. Alfa engineers have mounted the engine mid-car and have sent the power to the rear wheels, making it a mid-engine, rear-wheel drive car, much like today’s supercars. Bolted to the all-aluminum four-cylinder is a “TCT” twin dry clutch transmission. Drivers shift the transmission with two paddle shifters mounted behind the steering wheel.
