Well automakers have more ability to understand their customers; the same applies to a large number of products; as product and even brand focused sites exist that are privately run. Even reddit is likely to have a sub which ties in either directly or indirectly to a product.
I will say that Chevrolet got it right with the second generation Volt. People wanted more EV range, better gasoline efficiency when using the REX, real climate controls with knobs, and such. They got it all and then some. Packaging took a hit as designers wanted a more racy look so back seat head room too a hit but overall it was much improved in usability.
still it is evident watching various models through the years that roominess tends to force models up tier in the size category which in turn leads to a new model filling the original vehicles size niche.
