I saw a lot of Smarts in Rome simply because it's easier to find parking spaces for them there.

A typical American pickup truck would be a total nightmare to own while living there.

So fix your city planning issues and people will choose smaller cars.

The Romans I was riding with agreed that the sideways parking was the only reason to get them, otherwise they considered them expensive for the size.

And that's a pretty big reason in cities that aren't littered with giant parking lots.
