The Cruz weighs in @ 3100lbs, the same as the Camry and gets about the same MPG, but the Camry IS a bigger car....still, I wouldn't call those numbers abysmal, just disappointing.
A Camry gets 25MPG around town and 35 on highway with nicer engine and same goes for Accord in far more comfort/room/etc. Even larger/better Malibu does better. They are abysmal for a smallish car. Thankfully the nice but IMHO potential expensive to own latter in life 1.4t is a nice motor.
