GM is trying..
GM will take on the new high power compact market with its new supercharged 2.2L ecotec engine producint a whoopping 262hp and 228 ft torque !! Here are specs and pictures (I know this was related to a couple of weeks ago, but this is actually comming out on the market in about a year an a half !!!) Here is the article :
SUPERCHARGED CAVALIER Z-24 COMBINES PERFORMANCE AND STYLE Start off with something already very good. Improve upon it and the result is something spectacular. In this case, begin with the Chevrolet Cavalier Ecotec 2.2-liter engine. Add a supercharger and the result is a fire-spitting, 262-horsepower sport sedan. The horsepower boost was achieved by incorporating a Roots-type supercharger with liquid-air charge cooling. Cavalier Z-24 also features forged aluminum pistons with a 6.5cc dish to obtain its 9.0:1 compression, as well as titanium connecting rods. CHEVROLET CAVALIER Z-24 HIGHLIGHTS: Ecotec 2.2L I-4 aluminum block/aluminum head, DOHC, 16-valve engine Roots-type supercharger with liquid-air charge cooling 262 hp @ 6500 rpm 228 lbs.-ft. @ 5500 rpm Nippon tri-stage Metallic Red exterior color Composite front, rear fascias and rocker moldings Axis-Hagen 19-inch, five-spoke aluminum wheels TOYO Proxes T1-S P235/35ZR-19 tires ![]()

Yeah I must admit that looks good. I guess we'll have to wait and see how it actually turns out later on on the road!
