I don't know, really. That market has grown, over the years, but, other than the Honda Fit, Hyundai Accent, Toyota Yaris, and Kia Rio (I think that's all of them), there's not much of a small car scene, here.

I would say that it would have a better chance in Canada than it would in the US, though. For 2 reasons:

1. It's a hatchback. For some reason, Americans don't seem to like them & Canadians do.

2. Americans still like bigger cars. Best selling car in the US: Toyota Camry. Best selling in Canada: Honda Civic.
