The pessimist in me says no way "smaller, lighter" is going to happen.
Not when ABS and traction control and GPS electronics are being federally required, and crash testing is against SUV/semis. Insurance companies will triple their rates for small cars, and states will issue additional "fair pay/fail play" taxes to cover the lost gas-tax revenue.
Everyone but the car's owner would lose part of their cut with the current system.
