Seems to me that it's only in wasteful North America where much of the population can't drive a stick shift.
In many other parts of the world, where gasoline is expensive, small, sub-2.0-liter (often 1.3L) four-cylinder cars are the norm, and a manual transmission is a must to maximize both power and efficiency.
