The roadster version of the Alfa Romeo 4C will be the Abarth

Undoubtedly the model stole the impression at this year's Geneva was the Alfa Romeo 4C Concept which will go into production by 2012. The Autonews but says that Fiat will not stay in only one issue and so is already in the pipeline and the Abarth version. What can this mean that the roadster version of the 4C simatakia will change and will be sold under the brand names of Abarth (so maybe verify these rumors).

To remind you that the Alfa Romeo 4C Concept is a two-seater sport coupe with four-cylinder TBi 1750 MultiAir turbo engine is mounted in the center and the movement is transmitted to the rear axle through the automatic double-clutch gearbox TCT. It is made from carbon and aluminum, weighing 850 pounds and delivers 200 horses. The 0-100 km / h makes less than 5 seconds. Its length is 4 meters and a wheelbase of 2.4 meters touches. It has a ratio of 4 pounds per horse and wears a sophisticated suspension with MacPherson struts in front and rear weight ratio is 40% front and 60% back.

Alfa Romeo 4C concept at the 2011 Geneva auto show

A rather sleek carbon fiber body, curvy lines, a short wheelbase (just 2.4m) and a very efficient powerplant under the hood, that’s what makes Alfa Romeo 4C stand out in the mini-supercar market.

The engine outputs 200hp (funny how the same engine does 225hp in the Giulietta 1750 Tbi) and helps the car sprint from naught to 62mph in less than 5 seconds, to a top speed of around 155mph.

Could the 4C be the vehicle that finally brings "Alfa Romeo" back into the United States market? Alfa says, “Yes.”

At the introduction of the Alfa Romeo 4C concept here on Tuesday, Harald J. Wester, the Italian marque’s chief executive, said the eventual production vehicle was being designed to be sold in markets worldwide, “including the United States.”

When Fiat Group, Alfa’s parent, increased its ownership stake in Chrysler, a preliminary plan was sketched out — and then put on hold — to bring the Alfa Romeo MiTo subcompact to Chrysler dealerships.

One of the most talked about cars at the 2011 Geneva auto show, the Alfa Romeo 4C Concept previews a forthcoming production model called the 4C GTA. The beautiful coupe, covered in a hypnotic, deep-red matte paint, is described by Alfa as the “true essence of a sports car,” and the rear-wheel-drive, mid-engine layout suggests just that. Further details: Weight distribution is said to be 40-percent front/60-percent rear, the power runs through a dual-clutch gearbox, and the car is equipped with Alfa’s “DNA” chassis-adjustment system that includes Dynamic, Normal, and All-Weather modes. Yes, “globally” would mean the United States, too, and 2012 coincidentally remains Fiat’s target date for Alfa’s American repatriation (the ultra-limited 8C Competizione and Spider notwithstanding). Can Alfa Romeo really build a lightweight sports car teeming with carbon fiber and sell it at a competitive price? Recent reports have pegged Alfa Romeo as working with Dallara on an affordable carbon-fiber chassis for the production 4C.

Alfa Romeo and Maserati may get SUVs based on the Jeep Grand Cherokee platfor

The bond between Fiat and Chrysler continues to grow with this latest piece of news that Maserati and Alfa Romeo may get SUVs based on the Jeep Grand Cherokee platform, which according to Sergio Marchionne can easily take on the larger and more powerful powertrains that a luxury SUV has to offer.

Jeep’s own offering includes a 5.7 liter Hemi and a 6.4 liter SRT-8 Hemi. A large Maserati/Alfa Romeo SUV based on this platform could house Ferrari’s front mounted rear wheel drive engines, already used in Maserati passenger cars.

Chrysler and Fiat boss, Sergio Marchionne, has hinted plans to use the Jeep Grand Cherokee platform as a base for upcoming Maserati and "Alfa Romeo" SUVs.
An Alfa Romeo spokesman said just yesterday the Jeep Grand Cherokee platform could be used as a base for an upcoming Alfa Romeo SUV, which would expand the model lineup.
Chrysler's redesigned Jeep Grand Cherokee has been so successful that Fiat may use the sport-utility vehicle’s platform for Alfa Romeo and Maserati models , the companies’ chief executive officer said. Chrysler, the US automaker controlled by Fiat, introduced the updated Grand Cherokee earlier this year. Marchionne plans to open about 165 Fiat franchises in the US in 119 markets. Marchionne said Chrysler is working on bringing the small, multi-purpose Fiat L0, pronounced L-zero , to the US.

Marchionne denied reports in Italy that Fiat was considering spinning off its Mirafiori plant near Turin to a company owned in part by Chrysler. “Expect Chrysler products to be made by Fiat and Fiat products to be made by Chrysler,” Marchionne said. Marchionne said Fiat and Ferrari wouldn’t use the Jeep platform. The Grand Cherokee’s architecture could be used for the higher-priced "Alfa Romeo" or Maserati brands and could handle stronger powertrains , Marchionne said. An Alfa Romeo or Maserati based on the Grand Cherokee could compete against BMW’s luxury SUVs in the US market, she said.

Alfa Romeo Giulietta Review

The first Giulietta was launched in 1954. The Alfa Romeo Giulietta has been built in celebration of this centenary and has echoes of the original sporty coupe mixed in amongst ultra modern technology. Alfa Romeo tells us that the new car has been designed to compete with the best in the C-segment and it has the credentials to prove it, with a good dollop of Alfa styling.
The Alfa Romeo Giulietta sits on a brand new 'Compact Platform', which will also provide the basis of some new and surprising additions to the Alfa stable in the next couple of years.

It has the general appearance of an overgrown Alfa Romeo 147, which is no bad thing. The front end bears the new 'floating' triangular Alfa grille and emblem with the number plate set to one side. The lower part of the grille divides the beefy air-intakes and the fog light housings, a sign of its sporty intentions, while the sharp bonnet creases and muscular wheelarches make the Alfa Romeo Giulietta look wide and low.

the new Alfa Romeo Giulietta goes on sale in the UK from Saturday 24 July. In the UK Alfa Romeo see a 50-50 split for sales between retail and business buyers.

Alfa Romeo Giulietta prices start at £16,995 and rise up to £24,495 and its targeted sales competitor is the Volkswagen Golf range. Every customer can adapt the new car to their specific driving requirements thanks to Alfa Romeo’s D.N.A. selector.

The new 1.4-litre TB MultiAir 170bhp offers the lowest emissions and fuel consumption in its class for petrol engines of this power rating.

The most powerful engine in the range is Alfa Romeo’s new 1750 TBi petrol unit, which offers the performance of a three-litre but has the fuel consumption of a 1.6 litre four cylinder, employing revolutionary technology to ensure strong acceleration at low engine speeds with minimal turbo lag.

But the "Alfa Romeo Giulietta" isn’t just about being fun to drive. Each model, from the entry-level Turismo specification to the range-topping Cloverleaf, has a very high level of standard equipment. The new Alfa Romeo Giulietta was recently awarded a Euro NCAP five-star crash safety rating and an overall score of 87/100: an impressive result that makes it the safest compact car built to date says Alfa.
With a wide range of engines and four levels of specification Alfa Romeo expect 75 per cent of UK sales to go to the mid range Lusso and the sporty Veloce models with the starter specification Turismo taking 15 per cent of sales and the top of the range high performance Cloverleaf version taking 10 per cent.

With a 50-50 split of sales between retail and business/fleet customers, retail buyers are expected to make the new 1.4-litre TB MultiAir 170bhp, direct injection turbocharged petrol unit their favourite and higher mileage business and fleet users will go for the 2.0-litre JTDM-2, 170bhp turbodiesel unit.

The petrol engine returned a real-life 34.6mpg and the 2.0-litre turbodiesel returned 42.7mpg.
I thought the 2.0-litre diesel model with different suspension settings to cope with the extra engine weight offered a more refined and comfortable ride
