Past payload, what’s the reference which matters? Two seats? Two-cylinder?
How does the MPG at 70 matter if there’s no common ground against which to judge?
If it can’t carry ones family + luggage, it’s not a car, it’s a joke fools play on themselves.

My family is two, and most of the time my car is carrying one. Do I get a bonus for having a small family?
I think perhaps the ultimate metric is total cost of ownership, applied across all vehicles needed to service a group of people. If you need a second car, your cost of ownership increases and it may not be saving you money. Get in a bad accident and get injured and that's a cost too. Die of boredom and that could be an additional cost. Some costs are subjective.
