What's the lowest RPM you can drive at in gear without lugging? My Insight can drive as low as 800 RPM without lugging, so at lower speeds around town at 25 mph or lower one can still use a higher gear and get decent mileage.

44 is pretty good! I drove a Cruze once, unfortunately it was the automatic, and the car wouldn't let me use the paddle shifters to shift into the higher gears as soon as I wanted it to.
