The 4C is a small, lightweight, sports car created to be a precise driving tool, on the track and on the open road.

No one says you can’t use it as your daily driver, though, if you’re so inclined. So how but how does it cope with it?

The short answer is “not that great”, mainly because its lack of practicality becomes annoying every so often. A pure sports car, yes, but lack of common sense in some key aspects of the car is mind-boggling, to say the least.

Luckily it delivers a big grin once it stretches its 237 HP 1.75-litre turbocharged four-banger on the twisties thanks to the low weight and rigidity of the carbon fiber chassis.

An Alfa would not be an Alfa without some of classic quirks, but the 4C is full of them. We shall let Doug DeMuro guide you through them in the following video.
