I'm sure they could, but that goes to market penetration and viability. If they thought they could sell them profitably, they'd build them.

Honestly, I wish more of these type cars existed as well, but wishing isn't going to make it happen, so we need to support the ones that do.

(Given my next car will likely weigh 6000lbs, I suppose that's a bit hypocritical of me!)
