I don't know GM's plans, but if I were planning GM's future development, I would build a base 2.0T, a 3.6L V6, a 3.6T V6 (Eco-Boost-fighter to be labelled as a traditional Z28 or alternative SS), a 6.2L SS V8, and a 6.2L V8 supercharged all as engine options. At least 3 should be available initially, including the 4-banger, the V6, and the lower V8 model with each new addition coming out within months of one another. Additional suspension and trim packages should be available as special editions.

I know you'll hate my SS argument from above, so I'm simply pointing out that the SS trim is not inherent to V8s, and it represents performance. If a car performs in the Chevrolet line, give it the SS moniker, especially if it beats up the mainstream competition.
