That's kinda what I was thinking. Overall it isn't good for the car companies to sell a whole lot of cheap cars when they can get magazines to write articles about why people should buy the more expensive ones. They know the broke people buying the cheap cars don't have any choice as to whether to move up to a more expensive car anyway. Nor would they be reading a Forbes article. So those people are already locked in for the most part. It's the disposable income demo that they don't wanna push into buying the aveo, fit, yaris, etc with raving reviews.
It's like, "No, no you don't want one of those "costly" fuel efficient cars... you want a Camry".
EDIT: Honestly I think some of you are too protective of the Yaris' image. So everyone doesn't love them. Oh well.
