Default Mazda 2 2009 fuel consumption

Hi All,

I have a Mazda 2, 2009. Purchased about 3 months ago. Low Kms, all services completed etc.

Since purchasing I have found that I get around 380kms per tank. I realise that fuel consumption can vary and that fuel efficiency does tend to decrease as the vehicle gets older.

Took the car in for a service a few weeks ago. Mentioned that the fuel consumption was of concern. Spark plugs checked, platinum and good for another few thousand kms. Fuel filter did not require replacement. Throttle was cleaned. Other than that, oil filter and oil changed etc.
I also added Moli fuel additive a couple of tanks ago.

A couple of questions for those more technical than I am (not very difficult):

-Is 380 kms per tank reasonable?
-If not, what other issues could be causing the fuel consumption issue?
-Anyone experience something similar with their Mazda 2?

Thank you in advance,

Johny

Time to hook up a decent scantool that can read fuel trims, Air/fuel sensor and O2 sensors, and someone who's knowledgeable to interpret the data.
