We study the constraints from updated electroweak data on the three leptophobic Z' models, the ${\eta}$ model with an appropriate $U(1)'-U(1)_Y$ kinetic mixing, a Z' model motivated by the flipped SU(5) \times U(1) unification, and the phenomenological Z' model of Agashe, Graesser, and Hinchliffe. The $Z-Z'$ mixing effects are parametrized in terms of a positive contribution to the $T$ parameter, $T_{new}$, and the effective mass mixing parameter, $\bar{\xi}$. All the theoretical predictions for the $Z$ boson parameters, the $W$ boson mass and the observables in low-energy neutral current experiments are presented together with the standard model radiative corrections. The allowed region in the ($\bar{\xi},T_{new}$) plane is shown for the three models. The 95% CL lower limit on the heavier mass eigenstate $Z_2$ is given as a function of the effective $Z-Z'$ mixing parameter $\zeta$.
