Nope, that’s not a typo. GM is serious about the ECOtec platform and they’re showing it in a big way – by committing $494 million dollars towards the development of the next line of fuel efficient and performance producing ECOtec engines. That’s some big news and needless to say, we’re pretty stoked about. The funds will primarily be used towards building upon the ECOtec’s industry-leading direct injection, variable valve timing and turbocharging technologies.
