Mazda Mazda2 Real Gas Mileage: Pros
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2011	4dr Hatch 100-horsepower 1.5L I4 5-speed manual FWD	Combined city and highway always returns over 34mpg. However on strictly highway driving the mpg shoots up to above 38mpg. With a 11 gallon fuel tank this translates to well over 320 miles per tank of gas. see full Mazda Mazda2 review
2011	4dr Hatch 100-horsepower 1.5L I4 5-speed manual FWD	Between the manual transmission and the suspension, it's easy to drive the Mazda2 like a (tiny) racecar. Despite this and flooring it on every on ramp, I manage to get 30 MPG in mostly city driving. Highway trips net higher (35-38 MPG at 70-75 MPH), but a lot of uphill sections will drag the fuel economy down. Looking at fuelly.com, users are averaging 34 MPG. Not the best, but the Mazda2 achieves this with a much higher smiles-per-mile ratio than comparable B segment cars. I'm extremely satisfied with the gas mileage that I get, considering my driving style. see full Mazda Mazda2 review

Mazda Mazda2 Real Gas Mileage: Cons
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2011	4dr Hatch 100-horsepower 1.5L I4 4-speed automatic FWD	See postive comments for the cons. Fuel economy is OK, but for a car of this size and engine, I would have expected 2 more mpg than the average 32 that we get around town. see full Mazda Mazda2 review

Suzuki XL7 Real Gas Mileage: Pros
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2007	4dr SUV 252-horsepower 3.6L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD	Family went on a 400 miles round trip and averaged just slightly higher than 24 mpg. (Note: I am a conservative driver. I am happy to use the right hand lane for my trips. see full Suzuki XL7 review

Suzuki XL7 Real Gas Mileage: Cons
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2002	4dr SUV, ext. 183-horsepower 2.7L V6 5-speed automatic RWD	For how small and light weight (relatively speaking) it is, the fuel economy is dismal, around 17 mpg city real world. That is down near full/mid sized pickup territory. see full Suzuki XL7 review
