I doubt you'll see any benefit in P&G with the CVT vs. steady speed cruising at the ultra-low RPM which is its efficiency forte.
P&G works with a manual trans because you can demand a high load at relatively low RPM (the pulse) where the engine operates at optimal brake specific fuel consumption. When you demand high power from a CVT drivetrain, it spools up the RPM past the efficiency sweet spot.
Try it over the same route vs. steady cruising and see if you can see a difference. My bet is no (or worse).

I've found that coasting tends to skew the MID fuel economy gauge towards some optimistic readings. You can verify this by comparing MID readings against MPG calculated at fill-up.
Don't get me wrong - coasting does help improve fuel economy. Just the MID gauge doesn't do a very good job calculating fuel economy while coasting.
