On the other hand, if I were creating a fleet of self-driving taxis, and I could choose between 50mpg cars or 20mpg trucks/SUVs, I'd use 90% the former.

People buying personal cars at the moment tend to choose the latter: https://www.edmunds.com/most-popular-cars/

Better even... Delivery "cars" could be roughly the size of smart cars, with just a relatively big storage cabin.
