Just my wild speculation, but I bet GM reveals it AFTER the special ordering cut-off date of the 5th gen passes.

I believe the latest pic above confirms my conversation with a dealer friend that the SS version will take cues from the Pontiac trans am and LT4 option and the v6 option will be a twin turbo.

How does this pic confirm a V6TT?

DETROIT – Designed to deliver more efficiency, connectivity and advanced safety features than ever, the next-generation 2016 Chevrolet Malibu will make its public debut at the New York International Auto Show this April.

Using a blank slate approach, Chevrolet designers benefited from an entirely new architecture, which for Malibu includes a wheelbase nearly four inches longer than the outgoing model. That, in turn, provides increased rear legroom and interior space.

Due to a higher-strength steel structure, the new Malibu is also expected to be 300 pounds lighter than the current model, which benefits the sedan’s fuel economy and handling.

“Malibu’s gorgeous styling is the result of a masterful understanding of proportions,” said Ed Welburn, General Motors’ vice president of Global Design. “The roofline has been stretched rearward giving a more sleek profile, while the front wheels have moved forward and front and rear overhangs have been reduced. Along with the sculpted body side, these cues help Malibu appear more dynamic and sophisticated.”

More details about the 2016 Chevrolet Malibu will be shared each week leading up to the vehicle’s global debut. The 2016 Malibu is expected to go on sale by the end of 2015

It does not. We were just talking and throwing out what if's. My dealer is in the dark as well but conversations continue as a May release.
If you look at the old PIC that is a V6 version and the new PIC clearly has cues to the firebird and is an SS.

At least that is how I see it and GM is giving us all bones and no real meat.

I personally would like to see the TT as an option.

There is no TTV6.

How is it taking cues from the Trans Am? I don't see it.

The front looks like the beak from the TA and the hood with those nostrils are more rounded hood shape (from camo shots up close and the new pic).
