Ironic, isn't it? Noone wants a small 2-seater, even though on average there is something like 1.2-1.4 people in each car. Yes, most people drive alone, almost noone takes on more than 1 passenger. Yet they want a big 5-seater. In fact, most people want a big SUV, 4x4 etc., even though they
never leave the pavement. A 70kW engine is more than enough for their driving, but they have to have a 150kW V6 under the hood. It's not about what they
need, it's about what they
might need.
