A previous article said that a 2.3L direct injection four-cylinder will be the standard engine.

i also wonder how long before the dual mode hybrid gets dropped into other applications than just the Tahoe and Silverados...this would be a perfect vehicle and time to introduce a hybrid equinox to run up against the hybrid escape from ford.

The new Equinox will be sized more like the Edge/Murano than the Escape, which is all the more reason to have a two-mode hybrid version.
Supposedly, a new compact crossover based off Gamma is coming that will be Escape/CR-V sized.
