"New engines demonstrate refinements in efficiency and performance.
Among the more than 40 new engines, Stephens announced the planned introduction of a new turbo global V-6 variant and a front-wheel-drive Gen IV V-8 with displacement on demand.
The 2.8L V-6 Turbo is a new variant of GM's advanced global V-6 engine family, which features all aluminum construction, dual overhead cams, variable valve timing and a host of additional technologies and refinements.
First to be introduced in the 2006 model year Saab 9-3, the 2.8L V-6 Turbo will produce 250 hp (184 kw) of power and 258 lb.-ft. (350 NM) of torque.
The new engine will be produced at Holden's Port Melbourne engine plant, where a 3.6L version of the global V-6 is currently produced.
Stephens said turbo charging is just one of many ways GM is increasing engine performance and efficiency. Another method is displacement on demand, which improves engine efficiency by seamlessly deactivating half the engine cylinders when they're not needed."
