Nonsense. By which means do emission control means dramatically reduce the thermo-dynamic efficiency of a vehicle?

There are dozens of factors though that dictate fuel mileage. Not only the vehicle running on the road, but the kind of road, the kind of tire on the vehicle, the weight inside the vehicle, road conditions, temperature etc..
It's almost impossible for the industry to test real life scenarios with vehicles. The reported fuel mileage on any vehicle is clearly the max possible in the best possible conditions.
