Because of monetization. YouTubers like Kyle (and the endless number of other car content creators) do this for work. If a video gets views, it earns them money. Youtube's algorithms and monetization practices also favor videos of a certain length, which is why so few of these end up being very short.The question for me is - and this is my criticism of 90% of the videos on YT - why is this worthy of a video? Recording myself going to hang out with a friend who’s car died (ICE or EV) is just pointless to me. And I find it hard to believe Kyle isn’t aware of how that video will be perceived by many. He’s no dummy.
While his videos often seem longer than necessary, the point is that if people are watching he is getting paid. Even if you don't think a video is worthy, it may still be generating money for the creator. While this video is ultimately a low-view video, it also didn't require much effort. By creating a video he was able to turn what was an inconvenient night into a little bit of income.
