Yes, it describes a technology rather than a specific engine configuration. There will be numerous new ones coming on line. 1.0 3 Cyl and 1.6 and 2.0 4 cyl. There will also be some V-6s in the range of 2.5 to 2.9 L a little farther out. Forced induction is great. You get the economy of a smaller engine and the power of a larger engine (when needed). My first introduction to this was a 1.8L VW Jetta. Awesome torque, power, and economy all in one little engine. It has 135K on it and still going strong. Turbo's and related technology have come a long way since the late 80's/early 90's.
