towing capacity is a good point. but beyond that why do you need anything beyond 175-200HP ?

I used to drive a Saturn with a similar power/torque to weight ratio. You have to stomp on it to accelerate up to highway speeds, and thats when its not loaded down with passengers/cargo. If you wanted to pass someone you need extra space because it can't really accelerate when going at 50 mph. It has to work harder to go up a hill. Not everyone likes those qualities in a vehicle. They'd prefer to have more reserve power for those every day situations.
