Because enshittification has a specific meaning. It's really about online services that start being "too good", possibly operating at a loss to gain users. And after they have enough users that are "locked in", they start to get worse to extract more profit from the existing users.
The car examples I gave is already pushing it. But if the new Toyota is worse than yours it's not really enshittification because your car still works just as well, and you're not locked into buying another Toyota next time. That's just them cheaping out.
