2.0-liter inline-4 has been pumped up to 237 hp and 236 lb-ft of torque

Bur according to this.  
It will never see the states with a turbo. boo.

Yea - but that Astra is a port-injected version, not the SIDI for the new Cobalt. And like you said, it’s unavailable in the States. I’d bet the SIDI-T version would do better than a 6.2 second 0-62 that the VXR does.
