This topic is for Mazda5 owners to share their actual MPG with others. "Real World" Fuel Economy vs. EPA Estimates Save Money on Gas

| No surprise here. There's lots of stops along my 5.5km 10-minute long route to the office and back and a big hill to boot. Even if I normally drive 50-60km/hr the stops could kill any car's fuel efficiency here in North Vancouver. | |

I got 29mpg on my first tank... will update as I continue to drive the heck out of this car.

I have put gas in two times so far and have gotten over 27 MPG both times. I drive alot of back roads and small town so don't have a lot of stop signs but also don't do much highway driving. Plus i have used the AC all the time since our temps have been in the mid 80's to the low 90's. |

Jut had my low gas light come on for the first time. 350 miles on the tank of gas. Got 27.6 MPG this tank. 1010 Miles on it since 7 July... Just to much fun to drive.

Replying to: mrgary (Jul 26, 2005 7:14 pm) How much did you put in the tank after the light came on, if you can remember? I only got 12 gallons in it at that point. I like to wait until the light comes on, I'm trying to figure out what my fudge factor is. |

| I got 300 miles on my first tank and managed to squeeze 15.02 gallons in. I have to note, though, that I had 4 other adults with me most of the time and the temp here in Southern California meant I had the air blasting all the time. The light went on when I was at around 270 miles and the needle ended up pointing at the fuel pump icon to the left of empty by the time I stopped. | |
The light came on again, and I put 12.772 gallons in, getting 22.6 mpg. It was mostly city driving.
