The point is that there are not really any equivalent vehicle of the same size. We've just somehow accepted that we needed 3 times as much machine to carry the same amount of human.

The other point is that this amount of machine is absolutely not required to do serious work (TM), as most people who bought pick-up tanks like to argue. The C15 is European, but you can make the exact same point with Japanese small trucks, which are also a reasonable solution.
