Well, The EPA 2007/2008 ratings system is much more stringent so the mileage ratings for the new cars is really not comprable to the older ratings. The achieved mileage in the new smart may be much greater than what its rated for under this new system. Also, the emissions (CO2 and other noxious compounds) will be much lower than your 190d could ever hope to achieve, regardless of mileage.
