High Speed Driving

Really? Thought the CX-5 was speed limited to 120.

I believe it*s 130 mph.

I also spend more time than I should at the 85-100 mph range during my commute to work. I*m doing it now in an Outback. I am assuming the CX-5 will outperform it in just about every category even with all season tires. I tend to use H or V rated tires. Can anyone say how the mileage is in the turbo when driven regularly at higher speeds?

I*m getting 24 mpg in my 2.5i Outback.

I took a road trip, mostly at 70-80mph. Averaged about 28mpg. Once I pushed above 85 to around 90, it dropped to 25-26 on the instant readout. The 2.5NA is pushing teens at that point, lol!
