I mean, legally, no, it's not erroneous, it's authoritative.
That list is literally what are legally defined as mid-sized cars in the US.
You're certainly welcome to make up your own definitions, but they may not be as useful in discussion with others as objectively defined legal ones.
Legal definition? This obscure list is from the department of energy, not DOT so I don't know what jurisdiction this even corresponds to. But if you are trying to use a fuel economy list with a Bentley Mulsanne AND a Nissan Sentra on it to equivocate that the model 3 is a mid-size car, your source material is corrupted. And saying that it's the "legal definition" is disingenous.
