Mazda CX5 Buyer beware!

Best I've ever managed 13 miles of country lanes, pretty flat

Im amazed at some of the mpg figures some people claim they get out of a GTI

I recently drove to Newcastle and back which is about 70 miles each way and averaged about 34mpg. The majority of it is a single lane road with speed cameras so I wasn't speeding by any means

I generally average about 24mpg on the trip computer on short journeys, say 15 miles or so

Yep, Mines normally about 25-26mpg. I've never seen higher than 35.

I reset my trip computer last time I filled up. I've been to Glasgow and back which is about 180miles of motorway then I've been doing a few short local trips, my Miles To Empty says 35miles left, the fuel light is just about to come on and I've done 286miles. Running on VPower

Bit strange that   I've been driving a CX-5 Sport nav 150 for the past few months on and off and been getting mid 50's average, I haven't exactly got a light foot (20mpg out of my eddie).

Ok its still not published figures but good enough for me

Hi Ben
Interesting...
Can i ask what does your trip computer say for driving range on a full tank?
Ours says 430 miles
We get 33.5 round town, and about 45mpgh at a steady 70 on motorway
I'm wandering if the air con is affecting consumption?
