That is an incorrect summation. I'm using a single point of reference for a new technology. Having never driven a car with auto start/stop, it was a new thing to me. Not one I like or appreciate.

The previous ****box that the Cruze replaces - the Cobalt - will get similar economy if driven carefully. Still a piece of ****, but the point remains valid - all that extra complication for what? Tax credits? Feeling good?
