Maybe they will heavily rework it for the Malibu? i know this is where everyone is going (the sonata, optima, and the next fusion), but I like my torquey 6 cylinders.
The 2.0T is undergoing a massive rework for the Regal and presumably Malibu. More power, better efficiency, etc.

Newp. 2012 Malibu will have a short model year run, then most likely transition over to Classic like Malibus before it. This EpII Malibu will be in production either by the end of this year or beginning of next.

The majority of Americans will be clueless when this thing debuts. They'll only notice when GM starts advertising it or when they see one on the road.
