No, but hopefully they do a 2.2-2.4L at 7000 some RPM, which would be the best balance for torque, power, etc. Just look at the Honda Civic Si motor: 2.4L, 205hp, 174lb-ft torque, and 7000rpm red line, at 22mpg city and 31mpg highway. Those should be the target figures for their next engine. But most importantly - with a smooth/flat torque curve.
