Even in Europe we can't, since they replace them with fat Crossovers.

I've been casually looking for when my 80s hatchback dies and the choices are bleak. It seems like there are about 4 options for something of a similar size, half of those are just announced or coming out this year. And none of them start below ~$35k. Which would be fine, except there's been a few decades of everything getting bigger so it'll be another decade til these are in the used market, if they even take off.
The 2+2 is dead and the Crossover killed it.

What is 2+2?
I got a Golf and only because I use it to go longer distances, had Polo before and it was an excellent city vehicle.

2 door with 2 fold down seats in back.
The Golf/Fit/etc aren't bad and realistically are probably about the same size. They feel wider to me but that's basically any newer car.
-
Any newer car is actually bigger in every dimension.
Polo IV is bigger than Golf III.
