It is all about tight packaging for weight and the edgy handling and power delivery with high and sudden torque on the back wheels. Its hyper character would mean a manual would take away from the experience. trust me.

I have driven this car model in the Launch edition. It doesn't need power steering. I have EPAS in my racecar and take the fuse out when I race it. It gives me better feel. I have always had manual racecars for 50 years. I want a DCT. I want it for the quick shifts, I want it for never missing a gear. Strange how all F1 cars, rally cars and road race cars are either DCT or a sequential gearbox. The only real disadvantage of a DCT is the gearbox will not allow you to left foot brake into corners with some accelerator input. This is a car that you get up at 4 am to drive your special mountain section. This is not the car you take to the shops for a carton of milk, that car has power steering and it will be an auto.

I would suggest everyone in the "but it's not manual!" camp first go and drive one before they comment 😂 If you understand and experienced how edgy and nervous the steering and handling is, paired with the low weight (EU specs cars are 2000lb...) you will understand that a manual would detract from the driving experience in this unique case. The rest of the the raw experience more than makes up for the lack of a clutch pedal... You need both hands on the wheel and 150% concentration AT ALL times or it will try to kill you every chance it gets 😂 I drive mine daily. Pure joy. If there was a high revving N/A engine option like a v6 that would work in manual, but having the torque to weight ratio of a GTR or an early C63AMG with sudden delivery to the back wheels when the boost hits... you will want to have all your reflexes and energy focussed on the job at hand 😉 (And I have manual classic Alfas and race cars so not an auto fan)

[@nicksimpson88]

why does he pronounce monocoque so weird lmao

[@lsswappedcessna]

probably to get around demonetization. KZbin be like "monocock lmao no monetization for you."

[@sebastiansaxon]

Only bicoques and tricoques allowed

[@kokolomis]

As an owner of this same vehicle, I can attest to the fact that it only behaves well when you treat it badly. It is a car that was designed to be driven like you stole it all the time. Drive it any other way and it bucks, snarls, and shudders like an unhappy lion in cage. It offers you nothing but the joy of driving. However, it gives you that joy like drinking from a fire hose.

[@corvette7784]

So it has a steering wheel for Man sized hands. Got it!

[@LucaMastrolacasa]

Alfa romeo getting back to do what they do best high performance pure fun cars

@The Emperor shhhhhhhhhhhh 🤣

[@john15399]

why is this the first time im finding out about this amazing automobile

[@bappie3323]

Alfa Romeo 4C: When Italians actually try.

[@fortheloveofnoise]

If only it had a stick...

[@davidturgeon2087]

@@fortheloveofnoise ... it wouldn't be a 4C.

[@gersie777]

The engine is not similar to a Fiat 500 Abarth. Its much bigger and shares it with the Giulietta, Brera, 159, 939 Spider. 1386cc vs 1750cc engines

[@nicholasumsted2731]

I believe that Lotus makes the sketchiest cars still

[@davidgrainger5994]

Why would you need power steering? I have had one since 2017 and not once did I think, Boy does this ever need power steering. It is actually better than my Exige or Evora.

[@aaronhancock9864]

My car lost power steering, so it must be part Alfa Romeo 4C.

[@dallasbagley]

Rented one in Vegas. My favorite car, literally ever. I bought a Fiesta ST (built), cause it's the closest I could afford.

[@UpperRobin29]

It's like a Lotus but more expensive.

[@South4153]

there are lotus that are three times as expensice?!

[@petroa.9134]

Lotus is really expensive nowadays

[@good_roads]

I used to drive a hot hatch with the same engine the guiliatta qv loved it

[@zaphod4prez]

Closest thing that feels like a performance motorcycle without being a motorcycle.

[@PLGAZA]

Totally agree. Own an RSV4 Aprilia and a 4C Both are death weapons. The 4C is simply a go-kart on steroids.

[@jakedubbs1685]

I remember driving one that I found on Turo... wow is it a completely different experience from any other car I’ve drivin

[@clubsport9334]

"monocoque"

[@elas2k159]

Wow never new these were this badass; mad respect for them now

[@john9427]

2400lbs I'm in, wait no stick, I'm out 😔

[@CathodeRayNipplez]

What still has a stick? Well NASCAR maybe..

[@theshed8750]

Car is amazing. One of my dream cars.
