The Japanese cars of 1972 were such abominations that they had no place to go but up. All the same they saw their MPG reduced when the first US air pollution standards were promulgated. Toyota and Honda did not really get their current customer base built up until the mid-80s.
VW lost the Beetle to air pollution regs and the Rabbit struggled to sell in the US.
Don't kid me about the 70s and 80s. I was there.
