Doubt it, it'll first air on BBC One not BBC Three like Series 1 did

The BBC has confirmed that the new series of Torchwood will premiere on July 1.
A post on the show's official Facebook page confirms that the first episode of The New World will air on the same day in the UK and US.

I hope not, the first few seasons of torchwood were pants.
If they keep it along the "Children of Earth" lines then I'll be watching.
That "mini series" of Torchwood was one of the finest pieces of British Si-Fi to ever grace our screen.
It was everything that the current Dr Who isn't.
More of the same please.

re: Torchwood : Series 4 - Miracle Day (Starz)
The premier date in the US has changed to July 8th, and assuming the UK is still showing it at the same time, then it also will move to the 8th.
Gwen, Rhys and Jack will all be back, and it will take place in various locations around the world. The first and last episodes are written by Russel T Davies.

The New World will star series regulars John Barrowman and Eve Myles, as well as new cast additions Bill Pullman, Mekhi Phifer, Alexa Havins and Arlene Tur.
|
So the cast is now almost completely American 
The Torchwood Institute was set up by Queen Victoria (DH: Tooth and Claw) to defend Britain from alien attacks, so why all the Americans?
Funding and RTD's desire to be accepted by his American counterparts, would now seem to be the overriding priorities for this show.
My enthusiasm has just left the building..

Actually, Doctor Who made repeated references to Torchwood being set up to defend Britain from any alien attacks.
I hope this series is better than the last (which I actually thought was quite good, they just dragged on the one story too long). I still think Series two was the best. The stories in Series one just seemed to be there to hang sexual references off.

re: Torchwood : Series 4 - Miracle Day (Starz)
On the subject of 'Torchwood' I went down Cardiff Bay the other week and they have a shrine of it, loads of teddys and pictures and quotes and poems strapped to the wall, worth a look if your a big fan

Well duh! 
Given that they are two completely different shows aimed at two completely different audiences/demographics, I find your comment more than a little ridiculous.
