Chevrolet Cruze gets better fuel economy for the 2012 model year

A manual transmission is now more widely available on the Cruze, according to the General Motors ordering guide.

Mitsubishi describes it thus: ‘The Outlander PHEV Concept-S is a concept model MMC proposes as a special package of the Outlander PHEV production model that has a refined interior and exterior design that magnifies the Outlander PHEV’s unique driving experience.’ Not a huge amount to go on then.
