I might admit I considered quite dumb to not make the Diesel available with the Eco trim, or even a version specifically oriented for fuel savings with hand-cranked windows, some lightened body panels made out of fiberglass for the trunk lid, hood, front fenders and eventually door panels (not the door frames at least in a first moment), a simplified (then also lightened) trim, including the seats. I could also suggest some manually-adjustable seatbelts instead of the retractible ones, but the American customer would hate it...
