Default 42 Volt System Article

Saw this article about future of 42 volt systems in autos. Think the C-6 will have it? http://www.msnbc.com/news/674071.asp?0nm=C21C#BODY

The C6 will not have an engine much different than the C5. It will not need the extra power capability of a 42 volt system. If the C6 ever gets an engine with electronically controlled valves and timing, then it may.
