Do the test yourself then and calculate a full tank of fuel against the on-board computer and you'll see.
I handled two fleets of one-year test cars (between 10-20 vehicles) with log books and my opinion is based on that experience, where I was able to compare directly the on-board computer against calculated fuel economy. The on-board always read high.
