Fiat has recently announced the Alfa Romeo 4C will be built by Maserati in Modena, Italy along with the Quattroporte and GranTurismo starting in May next year.
Previewed in concept form at the 2011 Geneva Motor Show, the new halo model is likely to mark the brand’s return to the US market. It will weigh only 850 kg and is powered by a mid-positioned 1.8-liter turbocharged engine with 200 hp. This allows the rear-wheel-drive coupe to accelerate from 0-100 km/h in 5 seconds and hit a top speed in excess of 250 km/h.
The Italian carmaker estimates it will build up to 2,500 units per year, with a price tag of around €50,000 in Europe.
