What Our Members Are Saying about the Real Gas Mileage of the Mazda Tribute

Mazda Tribute Real Gas Mileage: Pros
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2003 4dr SUV 200-horsepower 3.0L I4
4-speed automatic AWD		 For a SUV with a 4-speed automatic, this thing does great on fuel. City mileage ranges from 17-19 and highway ranges from 21-25. Most midsize sedans do not do much better, especially in V6 form. see full Mazda Tribute review
2003 4dr SUV 200-horsepower 3.0L I4
4-speed automatic AWD		 for its 4 wheel drive and capacity, it is good see full Mazda Tribute review
Mazda Tribute Real Gas Mileage: Cons

2008 4dr SUV 200-horsepower 3.0L V6
4-speed automatic FWD		 Get 17-19 mpg around town. Had hoped for 20mpg, but no big deal. see full Mazda Tribute review
2003 4dr SUV 200-horsepower 3.0L I4
4-speed automatic AWD		 Only 4-speed automatic transmission thus about 18 miles per gallon see full Mazda Tribute review
