It would be more efficient, but that's not what American drivers want. They want a huge, luxurious vehicle they can take on all-day drives, even though they pretty much never do, and just use it to go to work by themselves or get groceries. They they cry and moan about how much new cars cost and how much fuel costs...

A lot of SEA countries as well as Russia's FarEast have limited used Japanese imports (Japan makes it hard to own a car past 5-6 years) because the used Japanese cars can destroy their new car market.
