You'd have a few mini-micro cars that can barely get out of their own way and get 150+ MPG.
You'd have a whole lot of large cars that go fast but can't survive contact with a sparrow.
You'd have an immense number of SUV-like things that look like bank vaults and get approximately the same fuel economy as bank vaults.
You'd have a bunch of very fast cars that don't weigh a whole lot and are modestly efficient, but can't even survive contact with the second car in my list above.
.... You'd probably have very few of the type of cars that
we would like. A lot more of the type of cars that most of us dislike. And you'd get lots of air pollution, to boot!
