Alfa Romeo 4C Scoops Two More International Awards

Alfa Romeo is enjoying a brilliant start to 2014, as the Alfa Romeo 4C has not only claimed the 'Most Beautiful Car of the Year 2013' title at the International Automobile Festival in France, but also the top award in the 'Importers' sports car category in the Auto Motor and Sport 'Best Cars 2014' awards.  In both cases, the awards were decided by a public vote. In the process of claiming the 'Most Beautiful Car of the Year 2013' title, the Alfa Romeo 4C claimed an astonishing 40.7% of the votes in a worldwide survey, significantly more that the BMW 4-series (25.55%), Mercedes CLA (22.15%) and Mazda 3 (11.60%).

Created in 1986 in Chamonix and presided over by Remi Depoix, the International Automobile Festival recognizes creativity in automotive design and is now a key event on the world automotive calendar. The Most Beautiful Car of the Year title was first awarded in 1988, with the Alfa 164 winning the inaugural award. Alfa Romeo has also won in 2005 with the Alfa Brera and again in 2008 with the Alfa MiTo.

Meanwhile in Germany, the readers of the prestigious motoring magazine 'Auto, Motor und Sport' voted the Alfa Romeo 4C top of the “Importers” sports car category in its 'Best Cars 2014' awards, ahead of 28 considerably more expensive models from numerous specialist sports car manufacturers.

More than 115,000 readers chose the Alfa Romeo 4C as the most exciting, imported sports car of the year, with Alfa Romeo’s two other, recently-revised models also making the podium for imported cars in their respective categories: the Alfa Romeo MiTo came second in the 'hatchback' segment, while the Alfa Romeo Giulietta took third place among the 'compacts'. These latest awards add to the ever-growing list of accolades bestowed upon the Alfa Romeo 4C.
