The 1.8L is going to be fine. It makes 140HP, which is only 8 or so shy of the 2.2L I4 that the Cobalt has currently. The Opel version gets excellent gas mileage, far better that anything that GM currently has over here.

I can't wait to see one in person. I wish they would come sooner, because I can't wait until November to buy a car.
