Chevy is advertising the 2.2L malibu to be 24/32 mpg whereas last year's model (same engine+trans) was 24/35. Is this a typo or what happened? Any real world experiences with the '06?

Other forums are reporting that GM retuned the engine for cleaner emissions for '06 and that resulted in the 3 mpg loss on the highway cycle.
