2024 CX-5 Turbo...Less Than Stellar MPG?

[Woodguru]

So we've put about 5k miles on this since we got it with 4k on it from the dealer's CEO program...25.5 leaving it over two or three tanks of gas, new tires seemed to see a bit more, getting ready to put LiquiMoly oil and treatment in which in every vehicle I've used it in makes a difference. My wife's commute has a downhill leg to work and uphill coming home, which it actually does fairly well on when the computer has been reset.

We're not tripping out, but she was used to 32 in her 2017 CRV Touring...

Oh, I will admit when I drive it her mileage goes down unless there's already 1k miles on it.

I’m gonna go out on a limb and guess that the people with access to the CEO Program couldn’t care less about engine break-in.

You're not going to get the same mpg as the CR-V but you'll enjoy the ride much more. Dumped our CR-V and never looked back.

our cx5 turbo replaced our CRV touring and while mpg is not nearly as good the rest of the driving experience more than makes up for it..our CRV was my wife's vehicle and I hated driving it but many like driving her C5 turbo..
