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?

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.

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.

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.

Very consistent mpg... by zoomzoomn

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).

Happy with my 2007 6i 5-door mileage by rdm925

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,
