“Contrary to much media interpretation over the years, “electrification” doesn’t mean electric cars. It means cars with an electric motor somewhere inside the drivetrain—of which the majority will likely be the regular Toyota hybrids we’ve seen for 20 years now or their plug-in hybrid variants.” Which is exactly what I’ve been saying. https://www.thedrive.com/tech/43978/...ink-its-headed This was written a week ago. |

Nothing is preventing you from steering the thread back to DOHC, but maybe that isn't so interesting (as in, having an engine design every manufacturer has been using already and no further details available)

I would love to talk about a future super engine that's going into a Camaro.
Maybe a nice V8 DOHC supercharged engine, hybrid putting out 800+ hp with a cool new design, upgraded chassis with lots of carbon fiber, monster tires, 200+ mph top speed, 1.2+ on the skidpad and 1/4 mile times in the sub 11 second range? I would love to talk about that and I would be socking away cash to buy one. Unfortunately there isn't going to be a future Camaro. If you want a conversation about future performance like that in a muscle car you have to go to a Mustang forum. GM is kicking us to the curb. Perhaps it's unnatural for Camaro enthusiasts to come to a Camaro site and grouse about the fact that the manufacturer is deliberately killing the car they enjoy? Or does it make more sense to just talk theory about a future engine design that's going into a truck? Is this Silverado6.com now? |
