It is because of the short, near vertical windshield. The wipers have to be=
small to make the arc without hitting the top trim and there by would leav=
e larger areas of poor vision if there were only two. More modern cars like=
the miata have more rake (angle) on the windshield allowing for essentiall=
y taller windshields and thereby larger wipers to cover more area.
