The small cars are different from those in the past.
"Those" is a demonstrative pronoun used to refer to multiple specific people or things that are physically distant or not directly present. "Look at those birds flying in the sky." Here, those refer to the specific group of words visible but not directly with the speaker.
The reference of they is ambiguous.
Any other is better than any, as any also includes today. It doesn't make sense.

"Their" seems to (illogically) refer to the same noun, as discussed in this post: https://gmatclub.com/forum/today-s-tech ... l#p3034314. Check that out, and let us know if that doesn't clear things up!

Today's technology allows manufacturers to make small cars more fuel-efficient now than at any time in their production history.
Option Elimination -
(A) small cars more fuel-efficient now than at any time in their - "now" is redundant. "their" refers to "small cars" or "manufacturers"? Wrong.
(B) small cars that are more fuel-efficient than they were at any time in their lives. "They" refers to the same old cars, creating a ridiculous meaning. We need a demonstrative pronoun to create a copy of small cars.
. Moreover, we need "other" as we have "any," and that will include "today's" as well. So I'm afraid that's not right.
(C) small cars that are more fuel-efficient than those at any other time in - ok. "those" refers to small cars.
(D) more fuel-efficient small cars than those at any other time in their - "their" is ambiguous. Does "those" refer to "fuel-efficient small cars"? Are we comparing "fuel-efficient small cars now and fuel-efficient small cars in the past? Moreover, are we saying we are producing 100 blah blah than 10 in the past? Are we comparing the number of fuel-efficient small cars with those of fuel-efficient small cars or small cars in the past? This option seems like a mess.
(E) more fuel-efficient small cars now than at any time in - we need "other."
