The 9-5 V6 Diesel will be available in all versions - no automatic gearbox will be available. There will be a 4 cylinder Diesel next year (probably the 9-3 Diesel engine). There will be an automatic gearbox available on that one. The reason for not having an automatic gearbox is lack of space due to large V6 engine size.
