 Diesel Powered Smart Car Gets 70+ MPG
by Michael Rose With the development of the world's smallest direct-injection diesel engine (cdi), smart has produced the benchmark for engine development and fuel sipping efficiency that even beats a hybrid version of the same car. The only smart that’s smarter or less thirsty than the smart fortwo cdi is an electric smart car. This micro mini diesel is touted as, “the world's most economical production car utilizing a combustion engine to propel its wheels.” But unfortunately it’s not available in the one country responsible for the most oil consumption in the world. That’s right – the most fuel-efficient car available isn’t sold in the US. How smart is that?
