Alfa Romeo 4C Spider first official images leaked

• The first official images of the Alfa Romeo 4C Spider have been posted online.

• Following several leaks last year, this is the first time we are looking at official photos of the Italian roadster, possibly an official press shots.

• The model was previewed by the 4C Concept  in March last year and now the company is preparing for a global debut, likely to happen during the Detroit Motor Show with European premiere to take place in Geneva.

• The Spider, based on the coupe version, features a carbon fiber chassis and a carbon roll-bar cover and windscreen ring. Notable changes compared to the coupe include new and more attractive headlights and a carbon fiber air intake on the driver’s side.

• Power: It is powered by a 1.75-liter four-cylinder turbocharged gasoline engine, which outputs 240 HP (177 kW) and 350 Nm (258 lb-ft) of torque. The 0-100 km/h (0-62 mph) acceleration could take four and a half seconds, while the top speed will likely reach 258 km/h (160 mph).
