Voltgate: Manufactured Outrage
Yes it is a radical concept I was thinking of the Corvair and how there were so many people against it from other domestics to Nader. The Volt is the same kind of thought change in Detroit. In a way if they would have gotten creative with the name they might have come up with the CorVolt.

How the Cruze should have been powered.
We think a lot alike on the power-train issues but like reg I like the CVT with the eco model but with your I3 turbo. I think the flat torque band would be both frugal and wicked fast with that combo.

GM Diesel Engine Lineup -- Circa 2013
I looked into this further with this result "This application RA 629 is canceled by VM Motori / GM ". So in house is the next step. All that money spent on the Fiat misadventures and they(GM) still didn't get a decent diesel program going
