Pointless with these new six-plus speed gearboxes and diesels.
Modern turbodiesels have so much power over such a short rev range that you either slot into a higher gear right away to avoid shifting, or shift a lot to keep your target acceleration. The 6AT in the Cruze isn't terrific (but then, that's common with all Cruze's), but it allows you to waffle along on the torque pretty well.
