 Smart fortwo CDI gets 71MPG
On a long journey of 1,000 km the Italian car magazine “Quattroruote” measured the fuel consumption of the smart fortwo cdi and confirmed the standard consumption of 3.3 litres per 100 kilometres. If we calculate that into MPG, we get an astonishing 71 MPG. The current December issue of the magazine carries a report of the test drive.

The route chosen largely consisted of motorways, but there were also detours and traffic jams because of roadworks, long uphill stretches and city traffic in Rome, Bolzano and Salzburg.
