2008 4dr SUV 275-horsepower 3.5L V6
5-speed shiftable automatic AWD		 Averaging 18 mpg. Not horrible, but not great either. With gas prices having doubled since the start of my lease, I try and minimize driving outside my commute and necessary errands. see full Infiniti FX review

2003 4dr Sedan 130-horsepower 2.0L I4
4-speed shiftable automatic FWD		 Great fuel economy my first tank was 28mpg, my second one with my cold air intake installed got it over 30! see full Mazda Protege review
2003 4dr Wagon 130-horsepower 2.0L I4
5-speed manual FWD		 The car does get excellent fuel economy- IF you can keep your foot out of it. I rarely succeed in that endeavor- the car is just too much fun to drive, the embodiment of "driving a slow car, fast." see full Mazda Protege review
2003 4dr Sedan 130-horsepower 2.0L I4
4-speed automatic FWD		 Great fuel efficiency but still retains a lot of pep and zip. see full Mazda Protege review
2003 4dr Wagon 130-horsepower 2.0L I4
5-speed manual FWD		 Not too bad, the roof rack hurts it a bit. gets a solid 22-25 driving 70-75 on highway. Does get 30mpg at 60 mph, but that speed will get you killed on California interstates. see full Mazda Protege review

Mazda Protege Real Gas Mileage: Cons
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2003 4dr Wagon 130-horsepower 2.0L I4
5-speed manual FWD		 Suburban fuel economy is acceptable, at nearly 30 mpg. But on the highway, with the engine spinning well over 3,000 rpm, fuel economy also struggles to crack 30. Many much larger, much more powerful cars achieve better highway fuel economy. Some owners have fitted the fifth gear from the related transmission in the Mazda6 to get more of an overdrive. see full Mazda Protege review
