CORPORATE AVERAGE FUEL ECONOMY.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corpor...e_Fuel_Economy

Fuel Economy... remember kids... GM has to hit CAFE targets... which means less fun for you and me.

I for one would gladly sacrific 2-5% fuel economy to get rid of this and keep a lively throttle response... but a company like GM cant afford to MAKE the car out of the box like that due to CAFE....


That HORRIBLE throttle tip in delay is programmed in because the EPA puts a gun to GM's head otherwise....
