okay if you say so, then can you name a mazda car w/c are locally available who's not gas guzzler compare to its direct competitor?
simply put it this way, mazda are not built for FE, they are built for
fun to drive.
i don't hate mazda ha? we own two mazda and a ford (ford owns mazda tama ba? or atleast meron silang percentage ownership)
yes mazda cars are fun to drive...maski underpower yung mazda 3 ko it handles better thaan my daily ride vios (siempre cannot compare the two) pero since nasa 60kms a day ang average trip ko from office to bahay..
di ko sya madalas gamitin..sakit sa bulsa e hehehehe...
Of course it's worse than the Vios. It weighs over 200 kilograms more and has an engine that's way too small for the body.
The Mazda3 2.0R has consumption that's the same as the Civic ES 2.0 AT that came out at the same time and the previous Corolla 2.0 4AT.
I have nothing to compare the Mazda6 to, but the fuel economy was pretty decent for the power and speed.
The Mazda CX7, in my testing, gave similar or better numbers than our own 2.4 CR-V.
The Mazda2 1.5 AT, in our testing, has identical fuel economy to the 1.5 AT Yaris and the 1.3 AT Jazz. The 1.5 MT sedan has the same fuel economy as the 1.5 MT Vios.
I'm still waiting on the Mazda2 1.3 MT test unit. I'd like to eco-run it and see if I can achieve 1st-generation Jazz numbers (20+ km/l highway) from it.
And yet every time someone mentions Mazda... the first words out of your mouth are "gas guzzler".

But in this case... if we're comparing the CX7 to the Tucson CRDi... the Tucson is slightly more fuel efficient (we had these two back-to-back). Only slightly though (might be a much bigger difference in holiday rush hour traffic... but no way to compare now)... but the huge power advantage and the cheaper price of diesel more than make up for it.

Ang pagbalik ng comeback...
*actor21
I guess I don't need to answer you back since niky already answered your question with real world facts to back it up.
then im sure mag mamamahal ang mazda car dito...Very nice infoPeople should realize that Mazda cars are not really gas guzzlers. Now we want SKY engines and see if the words GAS GUZZLERS have still place in Mazdas cars
*Niky i can't help it e, hehehehe...but on comparo para BTT, tucson ako, nag bigay na ako ng reservation ko sa marcos hiway..supposedly focus TDCi kukunin ko kaso konti nalang tucson na mas higher pa ang ground clearance..
*glntVR hehehe nasagot nga nya..pero regarding mazda 2, dami complain na gas guzzler sya...galing na sa thread ng mazda 2 yan ha?
kung di lang ako kuripot sa gas baka nag sonata ako hehehehe
*Starex_Gold sure ka sir? kase yung kukunin ko 4x4 CRDi pero not the premium ha? kasing presyo na sya ng sonata..waaaaaa ang ganda e..kaso lalo ako nde magdadala ng kotse everyday nyan hehehe..
kung 10kms per liter sya city drive go na ako dito hehehehe
Mag 4x2 ka na lang mas tipid e kung city driving lang naman e ayos na yun..
Sorry OT.
I think yung mga owners ng Mazda 2 sa kabilang thread, napapahataw sila ng todo todo sa galing ng driving dynamics ng mga Mazda na tsikot. Eto siguro reason bakit gas guzzler ang tawag pag mazda. Sarap kasi i drive at sarap ihataw lalo na pag cornering.
Kung Premium ang pag uusapan, mas mahal talaga, pero kung base model ang pag uusapan, mas mura. Pero bare.
Yung Sonata hindi kaya mag 10km/L sa city driving, pero para sa 2.4Li engine, matipid sya. 7.5-8.5km/L.
Kahit naman Tucson CRDi hirap maka 10km/L sa city driving, bakit? you can't stop the power![]()
Nag aaverage lang ako sa 6-9.2km/L sa Tucson CRDi Premium ko sa city driving eh. hahaha. Mura lang talaga ang crudo than unleaded fuel kaya advantage yan. Pero sa maintenance, humanda ka.
*SG,
Naka-EZ Pass mod daw kasi vs. walang EZ Pass, kaya nauna. Hehehe!
Basta ang CX-7 8.2km/L City/Highway combined. 7.3-7.8km/L Pure City light footed driving.
Ang Mazda maganda ang porma, di lang maganda yung fit and finish pati FC.
9.3km/L na average city ko ngayon... Heavy footed driving :clap: :evil:
Tipid talaga ng Tucson hahaha
Nabuhay thread na ito ah. Ako looks lang ma-icocompare ko kasi hindi ko pa na-drive CX7. Mas gusto ko Tucson pero not much unlike sa appeal ng ASX. Yung CX&, IMO parang car na pinahaba at pinalaki although much better pagkakadiskarte than let's say the Panamera coming off the 911.
IMO. (mahal lang panamera kaya it can pull-it off) hehe
Since parang car yung CX7, hindi SUV yung dating kahit na yun category niya. So if ako papipiliin, Tucson kung sa looks.
Fasten your seatbelt! Or else...Driven To Thrill!
