They're rated at 31 highway mpg thanks mainly to the 8-speed tranny. Only 292 hp from 3.6 liters though.

Z: 23

The fucking Z has over double the horsepower of the Miata, weighs half a ton more and only gets two less mpg

>tfw my 170hp subaru 2.5 only gets about 215 miles out of around 13 gallons
To be fair I was beating the shit out of it, italian tuneups every day. I could get more out of the tank since it's 15.9 gallons but the low fuel light comes on and the gauge reads below empty with about 2 gallons left in the tank. It's more about smiles per gallon to me anyway, gas is cheap enough right now that I don't feel bad about getting shit empeegees.

The Challenger I drove did almost as well, but I did drive it through mountains and like an asshole. Still impressed me tho
>>
>>14957075
Because they're mostly all DOHC without VVT so they're pumping in twice as much fuel all the time. Plus, no matter how hard you drive one, you can't get less than 22 MPG. I average 22 and I drive like an idiot everywhere in mine.

>>14957110

Well desu senpai desu senpai desu senpai its the truth

I drive like 0-60 basically every light and i keep it in a low gear all the time just so i always have power and i think the lowest i ever got was like 21 mpg
i get like 29 highway tho

its not geared properly for the highway
at 82mph you're turning over like 5k in top gear

r u stupid ??????????
>>
>>14957124
Do you not realize how retarded that is?

Twice as much fuel as what? What's your base for measuring an amount of fuel?

The answer to the guy's original question is because they have short gearing.

miata* whats with people spelling that shit wrong on this board.

Until you know, you drive one and find out its a large amount of fun for what is essentially a two seated commuter car.
>>
>>14957099

shorter gear ratios are there to keep the engine in a slightly higher rpm and allow for operation through a narrow range to make up for no torks, it also keeps the engine in its best power range which for a NA tiny ass 4 cylinder is shit hence the shorter gears.
>>
>>14957207

I've driven one, to me fun isnt winding the engine through the rpms, fun is having a meaty engine and when I put the foot down regardless of rpm it pulls through. I mena when your cruising in over drive at 60 mph in a 4 banger spinning like 2500+ rpm and put your fott down and you can hear the engine struggling turns me off. Its sad.
>>
>>14957069
I have gotten > 700km on one tank in the same car

If you drive and shift like a grandma you can go so far (still doing the speed limit)

and you have about 80-100km once the light comes on if you drive right

I was around 6.6-7.0 L/100k

God you fags ate so butthurt.

Just think about this

>larger sedan with 292 hp
>larger sedan with good mpgs
>larger sedan with a v6

Sure other cars have more power or higher mpgs but these numbers were unheard of just a short time ago.

>We just got out of the period of 170 hp v8s with 18mpg
>>
>v6
>poor fag

Pick 2
>>
>>14953027
But judging by your DTE on an almost full tank you're really averaging roughly 20mpg less.

Or he just reset the avg mpg while on the highway. Those Chargers get -20mpg in city driving, him driving for a couple minutes on the highway is no way indicative to his average mpg, especially compared to the DTE which isn't reset on the fly.

>>
>>14957487
>>14957521
like every single vehicle ever produced, it depends on how you drive
if you drive around a city in 1st gear, you will get crappy MPG
if you drive on the highway in your highest gear and only slow down to refuel, you will get good MPG

Am I the only one that thinks thats decent for a charger with a v6? I mean I know everyone says to go v8 no matter what, but if you want good mileage out of an engine that can still put out some power I think this is impressive
