Yes DAB reception in car can be very solid. That is one of the advantages of DAB. It uses COFDM which is perhaps the one and only part that they got rite when they developed DAB.

Yes actually there is a very important reason: lack of processing power. Nevertheless this can be solved with the implementation of DMB with AAC+ streams.
