Most people don't like to share rides with strangers. There may be a preference for smaller but more vehicles.

Smaller vehicles will be far more practical in an automated taxi model as well.

No one wants to own a single person car, because even a single person wants to be able to carry passengers if they need to. But lots of people will be making single person journeys all the time, so it makes sense for a taxi company to own them.
