Edmonds is wrong on the CD, it's actually 0.367 and mine is European spec so only weighs a fraction over 2000lbs (and mine's been lightened). I also have the bigger 'Abarth' rear spoiler and 16" wheels so I wouldn't be surprised if my actual CD was around 0.38.
The engine has factory stop start so stays closed loop on restart. It spins at about the same revs as your Fit at 60mph but it's a 2cyl without throttle plate so at least the pumping losses are low, it's also got Fiat's fancy Mulitair valvetrain.
It's a turbo car and EOC is a bad idea for it anyway, but EOnC has shown significantly worse results than DWL (at 875cc it burns very little at idle). Aggressive EOC might brake even with DWL but wouldn't be worth the bother. It takes absolutely forever to get back up so speed an no time at all to scrub it.
