[2006solstice]

Anyone get the new Autoweek yet? It has an article about the new Cobalt SS Supercharged that will be available shortly. Nice looking car, for a small compact. Should compete well against the Civic, Focus SVT and Neon SXT. Sounds like the new Delta-platform that it is built on has been getting rave reviews for handling in Europe.

I noted that this version of the Supercharged Ecotec makes 205 HP. Think that is what the Solstice version will also make? It is a decent number, but seems like a small increase compared to the 170 that base engine will make.

205 hp is probably from the 2.0 engine, not a 2.4. Better than a hp for every 10ccs is not bad at all

Indeed, the Cobalt is using the 2.0 motor...

 

[Solstice]

That bodes well for a 2.4.

Isn't the sc option supposed to be the s/c 2.0 ltr ecotec, not the 2.4 ltr?

I am pretty certain, from the articles I have seen, that the Solstice is to get the S/C 2.4L Ecotec.
