    Yes, somehow the American car buyer has been bamboozled into thinking that a bigger car is “luxury” and a smaller car is somehow “lower end,” so automakers price their larger cars higher even though the physical size has very little to do with the actual manufacturing cost.

      Americans have almost always equated bigger with better. Look at cars back in early 70s. I drove a 73’ Impala, that thing was huge, even by today’s standards

      Or more and more Americans are gigantic and want bigger interior space. I did not fit comfortably in a Mach E.
