I read your messages about "U" and "V" in VIN and thought - does my Hippo eat well?
My VIN does not have any of these letters. And I don't have the user manual either (for obvious reasons).
I feed Hippo by A-92 Russian gasoline (92 octane). I also gave him A-95, but I did not feel the difference. Do you think A-92 is suitable for him?

Look at the glovebox RPO sticker.
For the 2011's, FE3 suspension was on the 2LT only.
LS and 1LT got the FE1. The FE1 or FE3 will tell you what you have.
Plus. I think only the 2LT got the 17" rims.

geg. Are you saying you don't have an owners manual ?
Owners manuals have been available for download on this site for a long time. Donbrew our Tech Moderator even has the link posted in his "signature". Yes, they are in English. I'm sure you have the means to translate them to your language.

Wouldn't the sticker indicate 1LT or 2LT directly, without having to decipher suspension or wheels?

Oldblue, this one has a 2.4.

1LT, 2LT and LS would be on the sticker. For 2006 8th digit of VIN "F" (L61) for 2.2l "B" (LE5) for 2.4L. It changes year to year.

My book says LS5 for 2.4L, they have fat fingers.

Yes. Both stickers - window and in the glove box. Unless it’s an SS of course.

Are those the only fuel grades, or what others? You implied in a prior comment that there are no ethanol options. What about diesel?

Yes I agree..Factory installed 17"s + FE3 would indicate 2LT, for most all years I believe. .
