Nissan make essentially an identical car to the Aygo with the Pixo - also sold as a Suzuki.
GM even sold a 1.0 3cyl 12v Corsa in Europe - that's the same company that decided not to sell the Metro any more in the US.
This is not an engineering "what is possible" issue. It is a "what will those people buy and we can make money on" issue.
The technology is there, other people buy it.
Americans aren't even offered it.
