When I built my house, I made the garage 8000x6000 even though the architect, builders and council all said I should do 5000x5500 or something absurdly small.
That extra metre of width meant that I had shelving down both walls of the garage, and I didn't need anywhere as much storage inside the house (space which costs more to build, heat and cool).
My neighbourhood is full of houses with little garages. Every single one of them is filled with shit and there is a car or two on the street. The backstreets are all half-duplex because of it.
Another BIG difference is that I have a 15A power socket next to my car. You simply cannot charge an EV on the street.
