...just got my hands on new 2011 Cruse Eco info, and here are some rather "interesting" things about the Eco model:

1) has 12.6 gallon gas tank vs. 15.6 gallons for all other models.
2) has 504 mile "range" with manual transmission.
3) has NO spare tire (weight reduction).
4) has large 17-inch diameter wheels standard (P215/55R17).
5) literature says AUTOMATIC transmission is available; but only MANUAL is listed.
6) literature says CRUISE CONTROL is available; but only with AUTOMATIC (?) transmission.

...ta-dah(!) the 6T40 6-speed automatic transmission, with drive shift control, *IS* available on the Eco model as an option!
