It's still used even in some versions of the Opel Corsa.

My fear with the CVT is that it's going to drive the price up and drive people to other cars, or it's going to hurt reliability. Small cars don't have the greatest reputation for reliablity ... I'd hate to see that continue to happen when GM sticks a bunch of unreliable CVTs in cars.

Probably the CVT is actually cheaper than a 6-speed. Regarding small cars' reliability, they're widely used worldwide, so if the overall reliability was a concern there would be no market for them anymore.
