What he meant (I think) is where small engines (<2L) are common and larger engines are uncommon and "luxury." In NA a car with an engine less than 2l is a compact car, and the Yaris 1.5 a "joke" for many people here (although I laugh at them at the pump, mind you

).
The problem with factory installed options is that they have to adapt their lines to add the different options (although it should be to hard to use the regular ones and just change the haedlight assemblies and bumpers!) and that will increase the cost of the vehicle, which is not what they want for an "entry level" car.
