Fiat still has the 500 in EV version but was still selling the gas 500 not too long ago, Chevy has the Bolt, there's a bunch of small CUVs as well...
European cars that aren't offered here are not imported mostly out of protectionism for North American jobs, European manufacturers could sell their cars here if they were willing to deal with the tariffs or build factories on our side of the pond...
so I guess we agree there are barely any options for someone who actually wants a small car and, as such, buying a larger-than-I-want car should not be construed as a mandate for ever larger vehicles?!
