Consumer Reports gives it a higher rating. The article I saw wasn't by them and it's been a couple of years since I saw it. A buddy of mine was wanting a commuter car for work (vs his low 11s 96 Camaro) and had a magazine all about MPGs. The Smart was right at 30 and same for a base model I4 accord (may have been civic) with the hybrid civic/accord at 34mpg.
I guess it depends on the the party that is testing. Kind of like a Factory Pro dyno vs a Dynojet.

Either way it kicks the shit out of my MPGs in my 1998 chevy 1500 that gets 14/17 (on a good day down a hill). Doesn't look like my truck will do much better in a crash either. I see them like crazy in Atlanta. Atlanta doesn't have a parking problem or tiny streets so in Atlanta at least I think the Smart car is nothing but a guilt fix. Slap on an Obama sticker on the back of a Smart car and that'll give you 3 guilt credits.
