Answers:    You raise a apt point!
Also, you could ask why cars are getting faster and more powerful as the years go by, instead of getting more eco-friendly and economical. Up to the 1960's, merely a few cars could exceed 100mph and most could only do roughly 80mph. During the 1970's, when the price of fuel rocketed, cars became more economical and powerful, nippy cars almost became extinct.

But since the 1980's, cars enjoy steadily gotten bigger, faster, more powerful and less eco-friendly. Nowadays, a typical family circle car weigh a ton and a half and produces around 200 horsepower - a 300% increase on Granddad's elderly jalopy. It will also get up to 130 or 140 mph, roughly as fast as a really swift sportscar of 40 years ago.

The fact is we don't involve that sort of bulk, power and cost to propell a human being around neatly. If the current paradigm of heavy, significant, powerful cars was thrown out completely, we could efficiently get by beside far lighter, more economical vehicles. Between the two world war, the roads were chock-a-block with little cyclecars, carrying 2 or 3 general public around at a reasonable speed and powered by a small motorcycle engine. Today, we requirement a turbocharged V8 gigantic lump of off-road metal just to run down to the store for a pint of milk.

I don't think we can completely blame the motor manufacturer, though they must take some responsibility for promoting such envirnmentally poisonous vehicles. Instead, we should probably look to ourselves and the sort of societal values that we hold.
