Most small cars have already disappeared or will be gone from the N/A Market. The only ones left are the Nissan Versa, Kia Rio and the Mitsubishi Mirage (which is ancient in car years). Yaris is gone, Mazda2 is gone, Fit is gone...Chevy Spark is gone, Hyundai Accent i think disappeared......a kei car is not even a starting point of outside of that 25year old exemption rule (15years in Canada muhahaha)
