Replying to: aviboy97 (Oct 29, 2008 5:22 am) I have a V6 auto MAZDA6 Sports Sedan GS ( 14,500 now ). Worst mpg was 18 in almost all stop and go, when the car had just a 1000 miles on it. Over the past two years I have gotten about 21 mpg in a 70/30 mix of suburban and highway driving. 23 mpg tops when I do 60/40, and I'm not driving aggressively,   The best mpg so far, was on a recent 175 trip on rural and interstate highways, 60 mph average - 28.3 mpg. I'm happy.   one day, I talked to two other owners at the dealership who have v6s, and one said 29 highway, the other said 30. If I didn't have about 125 of those 175 miles on the rural highway with occasional stop and go traffic, stop signs/stop lights thru the small towns, I believe 30 mpg on the Interstate is very achievable.
#112 of 119 Mazda 6 Gas mileage by Borme1 Jan 12, 2009 (9:52 am)
I have a basic 2007 I4 with a 5 speed. I do about 90% of my driving on the highway. I have carefully tracked my mileage (have put over 40000 miles on it in the past year). The worst mileage I have gotten has been 32. The best (two different tanks) has been 39. During the Summer it averages 36 to 37. During the Winter closer to 33 to 34. I find it does a fair bit better at 70 miles per hour as opposed to 75. (Our speed limit here in CO) I am not sure why my numbers are so much better than other postings on this site.

Does anyone have some real world numbers on what you're getting with the I4 auto? Replies to this message: yankeekm91 (May 06, 2009 6:23 pm) m6user (May 07, 2009 6:53 am)

Replying to: m6user (May 04, 2009 4:55 pm) I have a 2009 Mazda 6I Touring with Convenience Package (Automatic Tranny). I do 100% city driving, my car has about 1700 miles on it and I've been getting about 13.5 to 14 mpg. In all honesty, I think that something is wrong with my car. Can anyone confirm this? Will my mileage get any better? Should I bring it to the dealer to get checked out? Replies to this message: m6user (May 07, 2009 6:53 am)

Replying to: yankeekm91 (May 06, 2009 6:23 pm) I would take a little road trip and see if you can tell what hwy mileage is. City driving is so different for everyone what with the stoplights, congestion etc. If you live in a very congested area that could be the reason. The EPA doesn't take the worse case when it estimates city mpg.
#116 of 119 Re; 2007 6i mileage by rdm925 May 09, 2009 (3:50 am)
I have a 2007 6i 5-door, 4 cyl w/5 speed auto. I live in Detroit. My driving is a city/highway mix. I'm getting between 22-24 city and 28-30 highway. a little less in winter. I'm very happy with the car. I hope this helps. Replies to this message: m6user (May 09, 2009 5:50 am)

Replying to: rdm925 (May 09, 2009 3:50 am) I have the same thing except mine is a 4dr and my mileage results after 28k miles is similar to yours. Most long trips I can get 32-33 mpg. I usually drive 5 over the speed limit. However, when I drive in Michigan where the speed limits are 70 and the potholes are large I tend to drive pretty much at the speed limit.
#118 of 119 Very consistent mpg... by zoomzoomn Aug 25, 2009 (5:04 am)
2003 6s, 5 speed, 89000 miles   worst tank 20.6 best tank 25.9 lifetime everage 22.3   Considering the EPA figures were 18/26 and the fact that I tend to drive this car kind of hard, I'm happy with it. Note: this car has an AEM cold air intake and Racing Beat exhaust (neither one seemed to affect the mpg either way).
#119 of 119 Happy with my 2007 6i 5-door mileage by rdm925 Aug 25, 2009 (5:28 am)
Hi, Just to respond. I have a 2007 6i 5-door Touring w/ the 5 speed auto, with 52,000 miles. It's my second 6. The first got stolen and totaled. Overall all driving in mixed city and some freeway in the Detroit area, I get between 24-25 mpg weekly in summer and 22-24 mpg weekly in winter. On long trips, I get 28-30 mpg at a consistant 70-80 mph. I'm very happy given this a mid-size car with the automatic.Also, I've had no problems at all with the car. It's very reliable. I wish the current 6 model in the US still came in a 5-door version. Thanks,
