The problem isn't hood length. You can't mount an I6 transversely to support FWD application.
This is not a problem for premium brands such as BMW and MB since they do not share platforms with FWD cars (ie. Audi & VW). Should this change, buying cars will be the same as going blind into a store that sells shit and only being able to choose by the smell (very similar to US election booths).
