Hasn't been official word on anything. Don't think we have heard any details on the LGX other than AFM.

I think GM will need a new more powerful turbo 4 before they would put it in the Camaro. The current 2.0T is like 279HP or something like that. Mustang is rated at 310HP on premium gas. |

It doesn't seem GM is aligning the 2.0T to match up against the 2.3EB. 2.0T will be base engine, LGX is upgrade. In the Mustang, V6 is the base engine and 2.3EB is the upgrade.

HP isn't everything. Didn't someone recently post a magazine comparison that showed the 2.0T ATS is as fast or faster than the 2.3 Mustang, despite the power difference?

I enjoyed the post showing the confirmed gm engines and where they are applied.. I can't see how the camaro doesnt get the 4T. Isn't that a selling point for Ford's eco turbo.. Easily modded? I want over 500 hp on next car I purchase.

You're the only one saying something is for certain. That quote is taken out of context and multiples outlets have run with it.

You are speculating. I'm quoting the chief engineer for Camaro. |

With the CAFE requirements going to over 54 MPG for MY2017-2025, a turbo 4 camaro is inevitable and will be key to the long term success of the model.... times change and the camaro either adapts or goes extinct, my vote is the former.

He's designing the car but he still has to work within the parameters GM sets. It's not like he can just demand certain engines. He has to work with what he is given. You are taking his comment out of context.
