Will the auto have the fuel saver technology?

Will the automatic have the feature where 4 cylinders turn off at highway speeds? Not sure if the CTS has it.

CTS-V doesn't and I seriously doubt ZL1 will.

The gas guzzler tax will preclude AFM.

I don't want it on the car because I don't want lower power in order to meet the GG tax. If they have to reduce power to enable the AFM, I'm not interested and will certainly go straight to a manual. I guess by restricting an A6 ZL1, my choices would be simpler and they'd be doing me a favor, lol.

My guess is that the auto and manual cars will have the same engine, and I'll be very surprised if both versions don't incur the gas-guzzler tax.
