......with everything you said. Sure, you may get a few tree-huggers to buy cars because they're "eco friendly" but we're not talking about a significant number at all. There aren't that many people out there that place the environment on that high of an importance level when buying a car. Just look at what cars are popular today - like you mentioned - SUVs. While I think most people who drive SUV's don't need them, car manufacurers will make what people buy and it's not "eco-power" cars (in any significant volume anyway).
It's almost totally an image, prestige, emotional thing. That may sound shallow, but such is life.
