Why are most cars designed to hold 5 people and still have trunk space? Everyone knows most cars hold one - maybe two - people at a time almost all the time. I can only think of a few occasions that I had more than 2 people in the car, and they were specifically to carpool long distance to reduce more cars being on the road.
So why are there almost no commuter 2 seaters?
The more I drive my car alone, with an empty wagon, the more I wish I had an Insight or a Metro. I've been trying to convince my other half that when we considering buying a new car, I'd preffer something tiny since we would likely only drive it with 1 or 2 people in it 98% of the time. She asked what happens if we own a 2 seater and need to bring more people... the simple answer: don't they have a car?
