Small cars will sell, but they don't make money. That's the real bugaboo, as far as I can tell. For the U.S. makers, small cars exist as much as anything to meet the CAFE goals. Many of them are reputed to *lose* money, meaning they have to sell even more SUVs to offset the losses (big profits).
The artist's conception is even nastier looking than I had been imagining. Didn't think that was possible.
