I track my mileage religiously using Fuelly and so far my AWD sedan is getting 24.2 AVG MPG in the City. The BEST MPG that I’ve gotten so far is 27.9 on a short HWY trip from Orlando to Daytona Beach and back. Granted I only have 1700 miles on the car and it is SLOWLY climbing as the car breaks-in but so far the fuel economy is one of my biggest disappointments. I’m looking forward to taking a road trip soon to see what I can get on the open road. Really hoping for 35 or better with cruise set to 75. I have to wonder if a 2.0 Turbo would return better fuel economy than the 2.5 L with Cylinder Deactivation. So many other car manufacturers are getting better results with a 2.0T that there must be something to that. I am really looking forward to the new Skyactiv X. Mazda should have brought that engine to the USA first and not given us the lame “Fuel is Cheap” excuse. The USA is one of the largest car markets in the world yet we get cars that are stripped and devoid of features that are present in other markets. It doesn’t make sense that we pay the same money and get less.
