Mostly because it's impossible to meet modern emission control requirements with carbies. If it wasn't for the imposition of stricter and stricter emission controls then we'd still mostly be using carburettors, at least on cheaper cars.

And even with more expensive cars, the injection wouldn't be either as good or as reasonably priced as it is now mostly due to the development the manufacturer's have been forced to undertake to meet emissions on their mass market cars.
