Alfa Romeo 4C Will Arrive in North America in 2014

Fiat has confirmed that it will be bringing the Alpha Romeo 4C to North America starting in 2014.

The Italian automaker had previously announced back in January that it would begin selling the compact sports car before the end of 2013.

“For sure it’s coming back this year with the 4C,” Sergio Marchionne, chief executive officer of Fiat and Chrysler, said in January. “We’ll be selling the Alfa Romeo 4C. We’re finalizing the car now so it should be here by the end of the year.”

Fiat owns both Chrysler and Alfa Romeo and is looking to revive the premium Alfa Romeo brand which has not been sold in North America since 1995 when it offered two models: the Spider roadster and the 164. Fiat took control of Chrysler during its 2009 bankruptcy.

The new Alfa Romeo 4C is a small, lightweight rear-wheel drive two seater coupe. The concept first debuted at the 2011 Geneva Motor Show.
