I was told by a Jetta owner (also diesel like the smart car) that they get 60mpg.

Both much larger cars.
Apparently the Smart car has been dumbed down for the US. According to edmunds.com the US version of the Smart gets 36 mpg. According to the Smart's own web site you can get a much smarter Smart in the UK that gets 70mpg.
