The Ginetta G4 is a lightweight British sports car first introduced in 1961 by Ginetta Cars. It was designed as a road-going and race-oriented vehicle, offering strong performance due to its small size and light construction. The car features a tubular steel chassis and a fiberglass body, keeping it light and agile.

The Ginetta G4 was initially powered by a 1.0-liter Ford engine, though later models were offered with various engine options, including larger 1.5-liter and 1.6-liter Ford units. With these engines, the G4 delivered a good power-to-weight ratio, making it competitive on the track as well as enjoyable on the road. The car’s suspension was independent at the front and used a live rear axle, providing decent handling for its era.

The G4 became well-known in motorsports, particularly for its success in club racing. It was praised for its nimble handling, strong acceleration, and affordable price. Today, the Ginetta G4 remains popular among classic car enthusiasts, with many models still seen in vintage racing events.
