Yes but everyone wants larger cars. Soccer moms wanted larger cars to transport kids to school and practice that weren't as ugly as minivans hence the SUV was born. More larger cars on the road made it more difficult to people who drove smaller cars to see and feel safe so the next time they needed a new car they got an SUV. 

Isn't that a function of the other cars on the road though?  if everyone else was driving a smaller car, you'd see the road better and feel safer also in a smaller car

Where did all the sedans go? - Sheel Mohnot

I think people just prefer larger vehicles. They see the road better and feel safer. 

I don't think I would ever buy another sedan again. Although they are more fun to drive than SUVs.
