Yeeeaaah, we live in a post-facts world, statistics don't mean anything, even if they definitively prove things.

The US especially has moved to all large vehicles and stupid crossovers, which leaves people like me who would like to fit two cars in our two-car garage completely S.O.L.

My old Yaris sedan and my wife's Fit could park comfortably in our garage and still leave room for a chest freezer and small garage fridge alongside.

Now just having my boat of a Nissan Leaf takes up so much room that we leave her car parked outside in the elements.
