Mazda has more electrified models in the works, with three EVs slated to join the lineup by 2025. For now, the most fuel-efficient Mazda is the 2024 CX-90 PHEV. This 3-row midsize SUV uses electric power in combination with a gasoline combustion engine for maximum flexibility; drive in all-electric mode, gas and electric combined, or switch back and forth according to your needs.

Most Fuel-Efficient MAZDA Cars & SUVs (Gasoline)

If you need any more evidence that Mazda makes some of the most fuel-efficient cars on the market, consider this: according to fueleconomy.gov, the Mazda MX-5 Miata is the most fuel-efficient car in the 2-seater segment. That’s great news if you’re looking for a performance-focused—and ferociously stylish!—sports car that’s also easy on the environment.

As you can see from the gas-powered Mazda models ranked below, choosing a smaller vehicle means you’ll enjoy better fuel efficiency on McDonough roads. If a model offers a 4WD option, bear in mind that it will come with a slight reduction in fuel efficiency.
