There are probably more car companies now than there were in the early day... worldwide.

In the early days there where hundreds of car companies. (If you count those that never actually succeeded in building and selling cars they may have been thousands). All sorts of people who happened to have a bit of capital gave it a go.

If you had only one payment system it would certainly be more efficient than many payment systems. Don't you agree?

Not necessarily, for one thing your removing competition. Even if it is, its unlikely to be massively more efficient, at best you gain a bit at the margin. The downside risk is much more than the possible upside.
