Alfa Romeo 4C 2013–2018 car dimensions: 3989 mm long, 1864 mm wide and 1183 mm high. Unladen weight is 895 kg. Boot space with the seats up is 110 litres.
The cabin is a tight two-seater focused on driving, with exposed carbon fibre monocoque, sports seats, aluminium pedals, flat-bottom leather wheel with paddles, and a full digital TFT instrument cluster. Manual air conditioning is standard or no-cost. A basic radio offers Bluetooth, USB and hands-free. Cruise control and rear parking sensors come as free options or in packages. No advanced driver aids appear in the equipment lists.
Boot space is 110 litres behind the mid-engine, deep but narrow and reached over the rear bodywork. It takes a couple of small bags for a weekend. The area gets warm from the engine. No front storage and no folding seats.
Payload is listed around 205 kg. Trailer towing is not recommended. No heavy-duty cooling or work-oriented options appear. A racing suspension pack with firmer setup is optional for track use.
The cabin centres on a bare carbon fibre monocoque cell with race-ready bucket seats that use a reinforced composite structure and lightweight padding. Upholstery comes in technical fabric or leather options with pronounced bolsters for a firm sporty hold. The flat-bottom leather steering wheel adjusts for height and reach, paired with aluminium pedals and footrests. Manual air conditioning provides basic climate control, while the driver-focused layout keeps instruments and paddle shifters close at hand. Minimal sound insulation keeps the feel raw and connected to the road.
Combined fuel use 6.8 l/100 km with 40-litre tank
Service every 20 000 km or 12 months
No Euro NCAP rating published
Standard kit includes ESC with electronic Q2, ABS, ASR, CBC, Hill Holder, front airbags and TPMS
The 1750 turbo petrol engine posts official figures of 9.8 l/100 km urban, 5.0 l/100 km extra-urban and 6.8 l/100 km combined, with CO2 at 157 g/km under Euro 6 rules. The 40-litre tank suits the light kerb weight and mid-engine layout.
Routine servicing falls due every 20 000 km or 12 months, with oil and filter changes signalled by the onboard indicator. The timing belt needs replacement at 100 000 km or four to five years, while brake fluid is renewed every two years.
Safety equipment centres on Electronic Stability Control with the electronic Q2 differential, plus ABS, traction control, cornering brake control and Hill Holder. Driver and passenger front airbags are standard along with tyre-pressure monitoring and a tyre repair kit. A high-strength steel roll bar sits behind the seats. No independent crash-test rating exists for this low-volume model.
Living with the car means accepting a pure sports focus: the carbon monocoque and aluminium subframes demand periodic fastener torque checks, while the sparse cabin and firm setup reward drivers who value response over everyday softness.
