Car manufacturers have made an artform out of selling questionable tradeoffs to customers. It doesn't need to be technically perfect (like an SUV). It just needs to sell.

When one approach is half as efficient as the other, it hard to see how you build a cost competitive product using the less efficient approach. Especially when the more efficient approach is already approaching price parity, with a much cheaper technology (diesel from the ground is much cheaper than diesel from the air).
