The model T had a top speed of 45 mph, 20 hp under the bonnet. with those specs a 100 mpg would be a doddle for any manufacturer but most would not buy the resultant car.
Oh and there is some debate about the T's fuel consumption being markedly lower.
EDIT
From Fords own site:
"The Model T was equipped with a 20-horsepower, four-cylinder engine with a top speed of about 45 miles per hour, weighed 1,200 pounds, and achieved 13-21 miles per gallon."
