The Alfa Romeo 4C GTA Concept certainly proved to be one heck of a model after its debut at the 2011 Geneva Motor Show, and the fact that Alfa Romeo already confirmed its production in 2012 was just music to our ears. What’s makes this bit of news even more entertaining is that Alfa is also planning a Spyder version of the 4C GTA, which is set to be revealed in September at the Frankfurt Motor Show.
The car will follow after classic models like the Duetto Spider (which inspired the above concept car) and be based on a modified version of the KTM X-Bow chassis. Thanks to that light-weight frame, Alfa is looking to keep weight to just 1,784 lbs (a solid 200 lbs lighter than a Lotus Elise). Here we should point out that GTA, stands for Gran Turismo Alleggerita, which is Italian for Lightened Grand Touring.
Alfa Romeo 8C Competizione has been very expensive for many worshipers of Alfa Romeo. For his spider model only worth about 213,000 euros. 8C Competizione is produced during 2007-2008 with a total production of 1,000 units.
The 4C GTA concept is powered by a 4-cylinder 1750 Turbo Petrol engine that delivers an impressive 200 HP and is mated to an automatic twin dry clutch transmission. With this type of power sitting under the hood, the concept will sprint from 0 to 60 mph in under 5 seconds, while top speed is electronically limited to 155mph.
