Automatic / Manual
36 / 35 mpg (combined)
32 / 31 mpg (city)
42 / 42 mpg (highway)

Like you were saying...the automatic is rated 1mpg better than the manual transmission...
And what is the margin of error on the measurements? One mpg might be significant or it might not be. Given that the listed fuel economy is often inaccurate, I’d say that 1 mpg is within the margin of error. In essence, you can’t say that one is better than the other.
