The Cirrus has a CSU, with the RPM control linked to the throttle such that above a certain throttle position the engine runs at max rated revs all the time.

It sacrifices a bit of fuel on the alter of marketing "simplicity" but hey as they as in the USA (or used to, until recently) fuel is the cheapest thing you can put in your engine.
