Oh damn, and with Chinese brands not allowed, its pretty much waiting for Japanese brands for you all
The US is basically walling up its market against affordable compact cars. That can't be the whole reason however. After all, Renault could sell the R5 or Twingo in the US if it wanted I assume. Are the regulations there so incredibly hostile towards compact cars, or do European companies resent producing compact cars as well and just do it in Europe because they absolutely have to, in order to survive?
The US buyer is obsessed with size, power and automatic transmission. Almost half of Americans believe “Made in USA” equates to a superior product. There are tariffs and a vast distribution network is required. Cars would have to be significantly adapted to follow US regulations.

What do gay Americans drive?
