thanks to glenn for posting these on the mazda rotary club website
the first article is from the sun

the second article is from the daily mirror

If those fuel efficiency figures are in british gallons, then those are not very impressive. Since british gallons is approximately 20% larger, the US MPG would be:

25/1.2 = 20.8

The US version would probobly be worse with 10 extra HP and a proboble heavier weight. Again, I'm curious to see how much improvement has been made in this area.

Both of the articles are giving the car excellent reveiws. Yet both bring up that 25mpg is not all that great. Back here in "the colonies" 25mpg on a sports car is outstanding.

I worry that the articles are even over-hyping the car.:(

I agree, my Alfa Romeo V6 is doing 23.5 (imperial) mpg.

Heh, the second link is that abrasive Mike Rutherford guy who was in the RX-01 video we have. :D

Good articles, thanks!
