Just on the 260-horse version. It's not the only turbo-4 though, you know.
They aren't giving up on making a more efficient Camaro; and they've got their eyes on another one (from the same article that provided what you just said).

wasn't that a 216 hp version? I would think it would be a hybrid too.

just said it was on his wish list. which to me (IMO) means they've given up for right now but if a more efficient I-4 that produces the kind of power and mpg they want were to come along then I could see it down the road.

but like has been stated IMO they were tuning the shift points on the transmission more then testing a different drive train. unless it's the LSA. . .lol hoping it's the LSA.
