The smaller the volume of air you need to move, the less this matters (which is why IEMs have more bass than tiny bookshelf speakers, despite being way smaller. It should be theoretically possible to do just replace the trunk and backseat of a saloon and have a 2 seater with good bass extension

I think we are taking about the bass shaking your chest. IEMs can’t do that.

IEMs can develop high pressures at low frequencies because the volume of air they are moving is very small. A compact car with the windows rolled up here is analagous to the ear canal in the IEM. If 50% of the internal space of the car is speakers (easily achievable if you remove the backseats and use the trunk space), then you ought to be able to generate large pressures at low frequencies as long as the windows are rolled up.
