I picked up my new CX3 Sports Nav 2 litre petrol 120 bhp on Monday. It’s now done 134 miles. The average mpg is showing as around 33.5.
It goes up and down a little but does not rise significantly now. I read in this forum that the average mpg is above 40.
Is there something wrong?

Mine has now done about 1300 miles and I average around 48mpg mostly on single carriageway A and B roads.

Reset the MPG average as it may not have been done since it was PDI and could have been low if just been moved around in a stop start way before you collected it.
After 8000 miles my average is 41 mpg with a lot of town driving.

One of those annoying cyclist, who happens to also drive a CX3 SPORT NAV IN ETERNAL BLUE on the odd occasion ... The CX3 has been a pleasure to drive but it's time to move on. ...NOW DRIVING A MAZDA CX30 GT SPORT-JAN 2020
On a long run today of around 100 miles on motorway and A roads, in light traffic averaging around 55 mph, I got 49mpg.
Around the suburbs, traffic lights and ring roads, I get 35mpg.
Average over 4000 miles is 39mpg. Its a petrol auto and I dont drive fast or race away from lights. The fuel consumption has certainly improved a lot since the 1st 1000 miles.

I've finished mpg watching. It averages out at around 40 mpg. It does over 50 mpg on a good run. Don't need to know anymore. Set it to know when I need to refill and just enjoy my driving.

I have a 2016 CX-3 with the same 2.0L Petrol engine (2wd)
I'm a fairly aggressive driver but the onboard computer says I've averaged 44.8mpg over the 15k+ miles I've driven it.
At the start I was really amazed at how high of a gear the engines tuned. Barely have to be over 1,000 rpm and the engines happy.
25mph and 4th gear is good unless you're going up a hill
30mph and 5th gear is fine
38mph and 6th gear is fine - and staying in higher gears definitely boosts the mpg figures!
