    I’d say in general because aerodynamic enhancements usually detract from design and people buying new cars in general want something that looks good.

      I must be weird then, because I think a sleek aerodynamic design is a lot more beautiful than a boxy design with the aerodynamics of a brick. Saving money on fuel/charging is pretty enticing, too. People don’t know what they want until you give it to them.
