Refreshed Alfa Romeo 4C Coming Next Year, No Manual Planned . The sports model of the company Alfa Romeo, 4C in the Coupe and the Spider versions, wrenched in January last year, and now the Italian manufacturer is preparing a new refreshment. Autocar writes that Alfa Romeo 4C will get technical improvements, but also that it will not be available with a manual transmission. This information was confirmed by one of the company’s chiefs Roberto Fedeli, who suggested that the refreshed 4C debut at the end of next year, while sales will begin in January 2019. The “pocket rocket” is likely to get a new engine, and the reliance and steering will be improved. The current 4C receives criticism of its behavior on the road and unpredictable management, and engineers want to solve these problems by implementing new and better technologies. Simply put, they want to make a 4C car as it should be.The 4C is powered by an Alfa 1.75 liter turbocharged petrol engine that delivers 237 hp and 350 Nm of torque. From 0 to 100 km / h the car accelerates in just over 4 seconds, while its maximum speed is 257 km / h.The updated model will also get new body colors, and new car customization options will be available. New cracks, as well as interior colors are expected.Fedeli also confirmed that future Alfina, Maserati and Ferrari models will not be offered with a manual transmission. The reason for this is extremely low demand.
