Where did they go? Europe has a shitload of them. Why doesn't America want cheap econoboxes anymore?

Why in the world would you want to drive a small car? Grow a pair and get a trugg.

>>28626720 (OP)
those are for third world countries, thats why. you dont want it, you can only afford a shitty econobox.

A bigger car is safer, more comfortable, and has more cargo space. Europeans stick to small cars because they don't have the money or space for anything bigger.

small cars are fun to drive

Flipper culture, everyone is searching for the next big come up since Americans need 17 sidehustles to afford rent

Unfortunately, like with many things American, it became a sort of arms race.
Larger vehicles are more safe for the occupants, expecially in collisions with smaller vehicles, so the most responsible thing to do to protect yourself and your family from retards on the roadways (and there are many since getting a driver's license is basically guaranteed in the US due to necessity) is to drive the heaviest, tallest vehicle you can afford.
Since the heaviest tallest most powerful vehicles tend to be the most expensive this also helps protect our wealthy successful citizens from having their lives tragically and expensively cut short by the poor slobs who lease used Nissans.

In Europe they cost as much as a compact crossover does in America.

'safety' standards have rendered it impossible/illegal to make small cars

People buying new cars in america typically dont buy tiny fagwagons.

Texas alone is larger than almost all of Western Europe. That's why. Are you retarded?

The answer is always CAFE. It's a retarded system that bases fuel economy on wheelbase, small cars at this point need to get over 60mpg combined to pass. It's killed small cars and trucks

If Ford brought the Focus ST TDi over from EU to the US I would instant buy. But the EPA are more turbo fags than the EU somehow on emissions certification. Focus is the perfect compliment to my ancient trugg that sucks 3x the fuel.

People didn’t want them? It’s not hard to see

America is huge and gas is cheap. Driving a cheap clown box doesn't make much sense when you can spend another $50/mo and get a full sized vehicle.

As a man, I drive a pickup truck. Can't imagine getting behind the wheel of some castrated trannymobile. Maybe gender dysphoria just isn't as common here?

Because nobody wants to debt slave themselves for a disposable shitbox worth nothing after being paid off.

They aren't as profitable as larger vehicles
That and CAFE heavy favors larger vehicles.
And with larger cars on the road smaller vehicles are less safe in the event of a crash
its basically a snowball effect where things just bloat out of control

>>28629922
this. safety is a big factor in terms of marketing and the bigger the car is the better it will score in safety tests. therefore nobody with a family is willingly choosing a sedan over some soccer mom shit
