The method to display the fuel consumption on the Mazda3 Axela is: press the info button on the left side of the steering wheel to switch, and then the display on the instrument panel will show the fuel consumption. The Mazda3 Axela is a compact car under Mazda, available in both hatchback and sedan versions. The Mazda3 Axela is equipped with two engines: one is a 1.5L naturally aspirated engine, and the other is a 2.0L naturally aspirated engine. The 1.5L naturally aspirated engine has a maximum power of 86 kW, a maximum torque of 148 Nm, a maximum power speed of 6100 rpm, and a maximum torque speed of 3500 rpm. This engine features direct fuel injection technology and uses an aluminum alloy cylinder head and block. The 2.0L naturally aspirated engine has a maximum power of 116 kW, a maximum torque of 202 Nm, a maximum power speed of 6400 rpm, and a maximum torque speed of 4000 rpm. This engine also features direct fuel injection technology and uses an aluminum alloy cylinder head and block.

In the Mazda3 I drive, checking the fuel consumption display is actually quite simple—just press the control button on the left side of the steering wheel. After starting the car, keep an eye on the central screen of the instrument panel and press that button to switch modes until you see the average or instantaneous fuel consumption numbers. For newer models, you can also access it via the infotainment screen by entering the vehicle information menu and selecting 'Consumption.' I think this is quite important because regularly checking fuel consumption helps identify driving issues, such as harsh acceleration or excessive braking, which can spike fuel costs. Personally, I prefer gentle starts and more coasting—this helps a full tank last dozens of kilometers longer while saving money and hassle. Regularly replacing the air filter or checking tire pressure can also improve fuel efficiency. In short, just a few minutes of effort can develop habits that save fuel and benefit the environment.

From my understanding of cars, the fuel consumption display in the Mazda3 Axela is accessed through the steering wheel or instrument cluster controls. Firstly, there's an INFO button on the steering wheel - pressing it cycles through the digital display to show fuel consumption data. For older models, you might need to use the buttons on the instrument cluster and press them several times. The key is not to just look at the numbers, but to analyze them in combination with your driving habits - for example, fuel consumption is higher during low-speed traffic jams and lower during highway cruising. I recommend checking it when starting the car to ensure the sensors are working properly, as instrument cluster issues can sometimes cause inaccurate readings. By the way, here are some fuel-saving tips: gentle acceleration, reducing idling time, and regular engine maintenance can all optimize fuel consumption, which means you're not just accessing the data but actually saving fuel.

Over the years driving the Mazda3 Axela, I've gotten used to checking fuel consumption by simply pressing the INFO button on the steering wheel. As soon as the car starts, the screen displays trip information - just a few clicks to find either average or real-time values. The new models' digital instrument clusters look really sleek, making fuel efficiency readings crystal clear. Personally I find this feature straightforward and practical, often glancing at it to monitor my driving habits.

Will a Manual Transmission Car Roll Back?

Manual transmission cars can roll back. Reasons for rolling back in manual transmission cars: Rolling back usually occurs on steep slopes when the clutch disengages automatically or the engagement force is too weak. Even when the accelerator is pressed, there is a buffering time required, which can make the car feel like it's rolling backward. Not engaging the handbrake when parked or a malfunctioning handbrake can also cause the car to roll back. Rolling back: This refers to coasting in neutral or with the clutch pedal depressed. Simply put, when the car is moving at high speed, pressing the clutch or shifting to neutral allows the car to move forward solely by inertia. When starting on a slope, improper coordination between the accelerator and clutch can cause the car to move backward, which is also known as rolling back.
