Yeah, marketing’s total failure to influence a more acceptable design.
4th gens did not appeal to most women. The sales numbers I saw a while back were so far skewed towards males it was nuts. Too low, hard to see out of, giant doors, blah blah blah. All turned the average woman off. They bought mustangs. Still the secretary car that occasionally gets a big engine. Yes, I know there are ladies here. But see out outnumbered they are? Our wonderful ladies are thankfully not average!
Now they are scared the base is too fast (300HP RWD is not a Corolla) and will turn off women. Really.
