If you think of the main purpose of having a side mirrors fitted outside of the vehicle, you can find a way to answer this question. By having a mirror outside, driver wants to see as much as he/she could which is behind him. So in order to do this mirror just have to create images which are smaller than the actual object. Then the driver can see a large area from a small mirror. And also the images have to be upright.
