Well, the beancounters have to be most of the problem - I'm sure a 9000 Aero interior costs more to manufacture than a whole Chevy Cavalier.
I bet what happens as well is: most interiors (especially most Japanese cars) are designed by engineers that are "average" size and they never test the lowest and highest 20th percentile. Whereas Swedes tend to be big tall people... gotta make sure at least the designer is comfy.

6'3" and barely comfy in a 9-5 although the 9k Aero was great.
