Today's technology allows manufacturers to make small cars more fuel-efficient now than at any time in their production history.
small cars more fuel-efficient now than at any time in their
small cars that are more fuel-efficient than they were at any time in their
small cars that are more fuel-efficient than those at any other time in
more fuel-efficient small cars than those at any other time in their
more fuel-efficient small cars now than at any time in
the sentence is supposed to say that today's small cars are more fuel-efficient than previous small cars -- i.e., OTHER small cars.
this is important, because you can't use a "they"/"their" construction (which would illogically imply that you're talking about the same small cars mentioned in the first part of the sentence).
当指代的不是同一个事物,不能用they/their, 用those更好
