I'd say it's more to do with the reality of urban life and car use = grid lock. That plus rocketing fuel and insurance costs and the idiotic obsession with draconian speeding enforcement and the romance has disappeared from motoring for most.
Cars are now more like domestic appliances. The younger generation don't covet fancy microwaves or refrigerators. And increasingly they don't covet cars.
