GM Powertrain's new Ecotec 2.4-liter four-cylinder engine, slightly modifies that well-used adage, "There’s no substitute for cubic inches." In the case of this slightly larger version of the original Ecotec 2.2-liter, one of GM's highest-volume engine families, there are a few more cubic inches found in the new 2.4-liter variant.
Yet the system adds little weight or assembly complexity to the basic Ecotec DOHC architecture because the Ecotec family was designed from the beginning to easily accept technology advances such as variable camshaft phasing.
The Ecotec 2.4-liter is one of the first GM engines to employ this sophisticated new controller that leverages 32-bit processing power.

 A History of the Holden Family II Engines - GMInsideNews Forums
The Family II is a straight-4 piston engine that was originally developed by Adam Opel A.G. in late 1970s for use in the Opel Kadett D. Over time, the engine block has evolved to include many modern featurs such as DOHC and fuel injection.
Ecotec name was also used for Holden-made 3800 Series II V6, now being replaced by global High Feature V6 aka Alloytec.
Yes, it is modern all-alloy Family II Ecotec from Europe, not Holden's older cast-iron Family II - remember these cars are simply imports, all the parts are the same as in the Opels (not true for LAAM versions badged as Chevrolet BTW).

 Will the Ecotec win people over? [Archive] - SaturnFans Forums   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
The normally aspirated Ecotec is fine for the regular ION (puts the ION's power at the top of its class), but I'm referring to performance applications.
With the ecotec 2.2 and the way the Ion is designed it allows for full power while AC is blasting, has a great powerband, is low maintenance, has the oil filter in a very easy to reach location, is highly supported, modifiable, and dependable.
My point is I think the Ecotec makes a lot more usable power than the Mazda 4 cyl, even allowing for a weight difference in the 2 cars.

I guess we people in the lower forty-eight are being a bit rough on the Canadians, FireMate...but you hit the nail on the head with how the journalist association classified the groups, like comparing a Sunfarter stick to an ION auto or a boosted PT Cruiser to a normally aspirated ECOTEC motor.
If AJAC threw in a Focus with the split-port 2.0L engine (that only gets 115-hp or so), or the base Corolla with a slushbox and no ABS, at least they'd be comparing apples to apples.

 Cheers & Gears Forums -> 2007 - NEW ECOTEC ENGINE
The Ecotec 2.0-liter Turbo was developed with the global resources of GM Powertrain in the United States and Europe, drawing on expertise from the naturally aspirated Ecotec 2.2-liter direct injection engine used in some European applications and the 2.0-liter turbocharged engines already in production.
The oil pump, for example, is the same as those used in all other Ecotec engines.
The groundwork for its capabilities was laid on the drawing table at the very beginning of the Ecotec’s development,” said Groff.

In its efforts, OPEL wants to create diesel engines with high performance and low consumption, but at higher level than Vw-Audi which has actually a very strong top position in this hambit (for the Vw Lupo 3L, Vw claimes an incredible 3L x 100 kms diesel consumption).
Eventually, all family feeling elements of the actual 996 twin turbocharged: specific lights, air intakes and lower einds, 18 inches wheels, side intakes (even if they look different from the 996 turbo, similar to the ones coming from the prototype we introduced recently...) and the specific rear wind.
