Smart Car MPG
Estimated Miles Per Gallon
The Estimated Gas Mileage for the United States is about 53 mpg on the Highway and 43 mpg in the City. However, as with any mileage number, the driving habits of the owner can be the most important factor in determining the mpg rate. This varies slightly from the gas mileage projected in Europe which is slightly higher at 70 mpg and there are two basic reasons behind that.
1) The EPA required certain revisions to the original design in order to meet USA emission standards.
2) The miles per gallon were originally estimated using the British Imperial Gallon which is a little larger than the US gallon. Additionally, the Smart Car learns about its driver as it is used, which actually causes the gas mileage to improve as you continue to drive it. We have heard reports of the mileage creeping up to over 60 mpg in some cases.
