"Magneti Marelli supplies the Alfa Romeo 4C roadster with the technology that helps optimize the performance of its six-speed dual clutch transmission.

Marelli’s electronic control unit and electro-hydraulic actuators ensure that power delivery is maintained during more aggressive shifting when the 4C is in performance mode and that gear changes are more fluid and smooth during cornering, which improves vehicle stability.

Marelli, which like Alfa is a subsidiary of Fiat Chrysler Automobiles, also supplies the 4C with its LED rear lights, shock absorbers and exhaust pipe.

BorgWarner supplies the 4C’s turbocharger, which has a manifold and turbine made from microcast steel so that it can operate at temperatures of more than 1000 degrees Celsius. Alfa made the requirements because it says they help lower fuel consumption during highway driving at medium-high speeds. The 4C’s fuel usage is as low as 5.0 liters per 100 kilometer.

At 895kg, the 4C is one of the lightest production cars available. The car has one-piece carbon composite monocoque that makes up the central, load bearing cell of the chassis. It was designed by Alfa Romeo and produced by Adler Plastics and weighs just 65kg. The car’s low overall weight is a reason it can go from 0 to 100kph in 4.5 seconds.

With the help of front brake calipers supplied by Brembo and brake pads supplied by ITT Italia, the car can go from 100kph to a full stop 36 meters, which matches the performance of much higher priced supercars.

The 4C is produced at Alfa’s sister brand Maserati’s plant in Modena, Italy. Output started in June 2013 and is expected to peak at more than 3,500 4Cs neat year, according to IHS Automotive."Em http://www.autonews.com/article/201.../marelli-helps-optimize-alfa-4cs-transmission

All-New 2015 Alfa Romeo 4C Named 2015 AUTOMOBILE ‘All-Star’


November 17, 2014 , Auburn Hills, Mich. - With its groundbreaking Italian design and Formula 1 derived innovations, the all-new 2015 Alfa Romeo 4C supercar won over the editorial staff at AUTOMOBILE, earning the turbocharged mid-engine coupe a coveted “2015 All-Star” award – an accolade that represents what the publication’s enthusiasts most want to drive.

“When you’re out on your favorite stretch of winding road or at the local track blazing away, turbo-four wailing behind your ears, the Alfa Romeo 4C reminds you what it means to drive with joy, with purpose,” said Mike Floyd, editor-in-chief, AUTOMOBILE. “The 4C is an unapologetic sports car and a spectacular-looking one at that—that’s why it’s a 2015 AUTOMOBILE All-Star.”

Beginning with the 2015 All-Star award, AUTOMOBILE chooses its vehicle contender list from only all-new, heavily revised, or newly significant variants on sale in the U.S. for the upcoming model year. Then the brand’s editorial staff spends three days driving the assembled array of All-Star contenders and cast their votes for the winners by private ballot.

“We are very honored for the all-new Alfa Romeo 4C to receive such a prestigious award as theAUTOMOBILE ‘All-Star’,” said Reid Bigland, Head of Alfa Romeo for North America. “Each 4C represents more than 100-years of Alfa Romeo racing knowhow, including groundbreaking mid-engine Italian design and Formula 1 inspired technologies – a combination we’re excited to offer North American enthusiasts and at a fraction of the price of other carbon fiber chassis supercars.”

The all-new 4C marks the return of “the great Alfa Romeos” and represents the purest formation of the brand’s DNA with its supercar-levels of performance and innovation, all while focusing on making the driver an integral part and completion of the machine.
