Business

Small cars are of increasing importance to the automobile companies, despite the small profits they make on each one. Urban congestion has reached a point where traffic speeds in a major city average little more than 11 miles an hour. Purpose-built runabouts, such as Rover's mini, Fiat's Seicento or Mercedes-Benz Smart, can nip through it better than anything else can. The soaring cost of gasoline has also made the 50 miles per gallon of the most frugal cars highly desirable. (references)
