GM confirmed to AutoWeek that the company will offer a 2.0-liter supercharged engine in both the Pontiac Solstice and upcoming Saturn Sky, not a turbocharged mill as had been expected. The move confirms speculation that a GT or GXP model Solstice would emerge with in a year of the base model's introduction, though irrational optimists who were waiting to hear the roadsters would get a small-block V8 option will likely have to adjust their happy-pill dosage. The supercharged version will reportedly be offered for the 2007 model year.
