Not that many Americans are car enthusiasts. The most popular cars have been basic commuters for decades.

Aren't the most popular "cars" in the US actually SUVs and light trucks?
While that is true, the new car market has narrowed to the point where most of the buyers want something overpowered for their money. The most popular cars are actually buying these when they are 10+ years old.
(I śaw recently that the USA market is about 16M cars.. this would have been low figure years ago. But they are barely selling 'basic commuter cars'.)
It's hard to get basic commuter without overload of tech these days
Certain tech is cheap. I wouldn't classify that as non-basic. Chuck a few screens in the cabin is cheap. Matrix LED headlights less so.
