Nope, 1L or 1.2L I4 Gasoline. Could shoehorn a Voltec powertrain in it though.

I can see the CAFE/cali people loving an SS version of this car when the base hits 47mpg. Not sure if that's city or highway.. Heck I'm sure they could shoehorn a Voltec powerplant in that car as well.

1L = 66HP

1.2L = 77/78HP

Not a bruiser, but with a 12 sec 0-60 i'll do it on American Highways as is. I can see GM possibly pushing the I4 engine from the Cobalt/Cruze and forming an LS/LT/SS lineup.
