Automakers probably don’t think there is a market for it. I’d probably buy a diesel hybrid over a gas hybrid. It seems to be a good match.
An automaker who produces a hybrid auto, giving consumers a choice of either a small diesel or gas ICE, would, IMHO have a sure winner.
Technology being what it is nowadays, said auto should be a piece of cake to design, test, manufacture and sell.

Diesel cars are difficult to get approved due to to emissions. In other words Government regulations.
