v6 cruze

I was doing so searching on another forum and there was talk about that GM should try and put the 3.0 DI v6 in the Cruze. I think it would be bad 2.0t better power and weighs less but thats just me. So my question to you all is what do you think of this idea?

Well imagine a DI 3.0 with a blower/turbo setup. That would make some power too.

they make a bit more power than the 2.0t but they only make 220 torque plus the weight difference from v6 to I4

GM is so fickle on what they will or won't do, I have stopped trying to figure it out.

Once you can go to a dealer and buy something that's when I believe it.

agreed. its really annoying actually. i doubt they will, cause the cruze is kinda small to have a v6 in it

I can't think of one argument in favour of putting this motor in the Cruze.
