Taken from GM.com in reference to the 2008 Cobalt:

The race-inspired Cobalt comes barreling from the gate in two packages: the 2.2L ECOTEC powered 4-door sedan and a 2.4L Supercharged 2-door coupe. The roomy interior adds to its sporty feel.

Please tell me this is a typo or something.....

Interesting find, I have not heard anything about that.

I like how it says the 2.2L is only for the sedan, yet there are 08 2.2L coupes at my dealership right now...

Indeed, interesting. A good friend of mine has a Scion 2.4 Supercharged and those things are quite fast even though he doesn't have an intercooler. I remember he also changed the crankshaft pulley. Still a supercharged 2.4 cobalt will be a fast one as already been demonstrated by I think Beck.

If you want to be sure go the SAE website and search for 2.4L Cobalt like JonnyB did. Maybe there's a hint there.

What does he have for hp/torque?
If it is true, it might be good competition for the 2.0 turbo...

def. a typo. if you try and build and price a cobalt there is no option for a supercharged 2.4

My friend has not dyno his car. I estimate 220-230WHP. There is other guy in this forum that dyno his 2.4 and achieved 224WHP/219 TQ I don't remember well.

I wouldn't worry about it; the more you know about a subject the more often you can spot typos in what's written by the supposed "experts".

For two years in a row, they had a SS 2.4 coupe at the auto show in Chicago, which was mislabelled as a 2.0 SS/SC. The car was correct; the sign out in front of it was wrong. Somewhere I have pics...

DSMissed

But what the hell, getting misinformed from the GM site itself? Someone needs to get fired...

LethalSS

Here it is - this is a SS/NA but the display placard says "SS Supercharged". I bet 99% of the people there didn't even know it was wrong.

It happens, theres nothing at the dealerships around here about the 08 ss/TC. I do want to see if i can reserve one.
