Carmakers are failing to deliver affordable electric cars, holding back EV adoption | Disproportionate focus of manufacturers on large SUVs and premium models means we have too few mass-market cars. (www.transportenvironment.org)

For fucks sake it should be. Most commutes don't need cargo space.

Spoken like someone with no kids who always lived near a grocery store

False on both counts Bubba. Let me guess, you drive your extended cab f150 everywhere "just incase" you need it?

Grocery shopping shouldn't need to happen more than every couple days. Really once or twice a week should be enough. And do both you and your spouse need to go grocery shopping every day? Maybe one of you drives the small vehicle and the other the family vehicle?

Don't get me wrong, I also prefer to have the extra space, but I'm planning on buying a small hybrid truck so at least I am being more fuel efficient with it.
