What Our Members Are Saying about the Real Gas Mileage of the Mazda Mazda5

Mazda Mazda5 Real Gas Mileage: Pros
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2014	4dr Minivan 157-horsepower 2.5L I4 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD	The Mazda5 doesn't get great milage. But it's better than other minivans and most CUVs. Of the alternatives I shopped, the Mazda was the most frugal on gas. see full Mazda Mazda5 review
2010	4dr Minivan 153-horsepower 2.3L I4 5-speed manual FWD	Impressive considering all this vehicle can do (carry six, or a bunch of stuff). Driven with some restraint (60-65), I can average 30+ mpg on my weekly commute. With a microvan that can seat six. see full Mazda Mazda5 review

2009	4dr Minivan 153-horsepower 2.3L I4 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD	Better than our previous mini-van, mostly because of size. We drive it harder, so some of that advantage is lost :) see full Mazda Mazda5 review

2008	4dr Minivan 153-horsepower 2.3L I4 5-speed manual FWD	Avg under 10L/100km one of buying criteria. good on hwy and not as bad as full sized van in city. Good for long summer road trips. see full Mazda Mazda5 review

2014	4dr Minivan 157-horsepower 2.5L I4 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD	If only. If only Skyactiv came out during the 5's redesign. While gas usage is better than the competition, it's far worse than it could be. Just popping in Mazda's latest engine and tranmission combo would surely give several more mpg. Just a 10% improvement would make me happier. see full Mazda Mazda5 review
2007	4dr Minivan 153-horsepower 2.3L I4 4-speed shiftable automatic FWD	It uses twice as much fuel as a Prius. see full Mazda Mazda5 review
2006	4dr Minivan 157-horsepower 2.3L I4 4-speed shiftable automatic FWD	vehicle is heavy for its size so the fuel economy is not that great. see full Mazda Mazda5 review
2006	4dr Minivan 157-horsepower 2.3L I4 4-speed shiftable automatic FWD	My 4 speed automatic yields about 10.5 L/100 km on 50/50 highway and city driving with a conscious effort to stick to the speed limit and driving as if I had an egg under my right foot. Eh, I thought it would AT LEAST be under 10. see full Mazda Mazda5 review

Acura TL Real Gas Mileage: Pros
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2012	4dr Sedan 305-horsepower 3.7L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic AWD	Mileage has been pretty good to great. At 65 mph with cruise control on a smooth, level highway I've gotten 33 mpg. 80mph (legally in west Texas) on cruise control I've gotten 24 to 25 mpg depending on wind. Between those, 70 to 75 mph on a highway, I get about the EPA highway rating of 26 mpg. In mixed highway and traffic I routinely get 23 mpg (this is my usual commute). Straight stop-and-go errand-running I get 17 to 18 mpg, which is pretty close to the EPA city rating. I tend to be somewhat light on the throttle most of the time. see full Acura TL review
2010	4dr Sedan 305-horsepower 3.7L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic AWD	Definitely getting poor mpg - not sure if this is an issue with just my vehicle but I am not getting even close to the estimated fuel economy see full Acura TL review
2008	4dr Sedan 286-horsepower 3.5L V6 6-speed manual FWD	Gets great fuel economy, 29mpg at 80-85mph cruize. over 30mpg if I slow it down to low 70s see full Acura TL review
2008	4dr Sedan 258-horsepower 3.2L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD	I routinely do 29.5 mpg on the highway, 20-24.5 around town, depending on the route and the traffic. see full Acura TL review

2007	4dr Sedan 286-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD	On highway, with driving techniques I have been able to achieve 32-24 MPG average for 300 miles! Not bad for a 3.5l 6 cylinder! see full Acura TL review

2010	4dr Sedan 305-horsepower 3.7L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic AWD	Coming from a 3.2 engine that regularly got 22-23 mpg it it a bit disappointing that the 2010 TL with the 3.7 gets only 18-19 mpg. I would expect with the engine technologies improvement over the years that the bigger engine could get better fuel mileage. see full Acura TL review
2010	4dr Sedan 305-horsepower 3.7L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic AWD	Terrible fuel economy - this could be an issue with just my car. I'm getting about a 12-14 average. see full Acura TL review
