I could be wrong on the specifics but I believe that generally DL's monorail system (both track & vehicles) are smaller than that of WDW's. Just the sheer height & length of the track from the T&TC to EPCOT is probably double the length of Disneyland's. Perhaps the current WDW monorail cars accomodate the number of guest riders in an appropriate way. I don't THINK that Disneyland's upgrade had EVERYTHING to do with 'cosmetics', my guess is that the rider demand CALLED for upgraded cars. If WDW's monorail system isn't failing in the deparment of rider demand I doubt we'll get new ones anytime soon.
