So I'm struggling to come up with how to phrase this, so hopefully it'll make sense. Something I really like with my '14 CTD is how on the highway it never downshifts. Regardless of the size of the hill, if I have the cruise set at 110 km/h, it just goes along in 6th and never needs to drop a gear. My dad had a 2014 BMW 328i with the 8 spd auto and it felt like on the smallest hill it'd drop a gear with the cruise set. Does the 9 speed auto in the new Cruze stay in 9th for the most part on the highway, or does it frequently downshift even on small hills?
