General Motors Corp.'s Hummer brand is scheduled to begin selling a midsize sport utility vehicle in the first half of 2005 and is planning a high-performance series of vehicles called Alpha.

The low-volume Alpha series will begin with the 2006 H1 Alpha, which is scheduled for launch in early 2005. The H1 Alpha will be equipped with GM's 6.6-liter Duramax turbo diesel engine, which GM said will provide more power, improved emissions performance and better fuel economy than the H1.

Wonder what that will mean for the enhanced 6.5s? Could replacement engines become scarce? Any other markets use the old 6.5?
