2017~2025: Who said CX-5 Turbos don't get good MPG?

Not bad for a turbo.

Downhill and/or tailwinds help

Downhill, drafting, with a strong wind at your back haha

It is fun to see the higher mpg's though, if even for a short drive

Hahaha ... I posted the same thing at the same time

Actually it was flat ground and minimal wind, just cruising along a long winding road at 45 mph outside temperature about 58 deg.

The best I have managed. Normally on these kinds of trips it is ~32-35. This one must have had fewer stops.

My whole-tank average is 23mpg.

NOT ME ! - Turbos in theory should be more efficient than NAs -

On my Na - Over 61 miles constant driving

+ 80 mph - ( speed limit 75 ) average 42.9 mpg - this is a regular occurence on my NA using 0W-20 gf5 w Moly

I don't believe it. You may have drove 60 miles and got 42.9 mpg then the last .4 achieved 80+ mph....downhill

I drove under 60mph on my way to work this morning. Considerably slower then normal and this was all I could get. Sad.
