Why did Hot Wheels Acceleracers stop?
Acceleracers ended because it just wasn't bringing in the viewership and merchandise sales Mattel had hoped for. Despite the series having a compelling storyline and cool concept, it didn't hit the mark in the eyes of the broader audience. Basically, it boiled down to business - not enough bang for their buck.

Hot Wheels Acceleracers was epic, but from what I've seen, it stopped because it didn't sell as well as expected. The movies were cool and the cars were awesome, but if it doesn't make money, companies usually don't keep it going. It's a bummer because I loved the designs and the whole vibe of Acceleracers.
Sales, folks. Sadly, it's all about the sales. Acceleracers didn't make enough of 'em to justify continuing the series.
Actually, it was a hidden masterpiece, but sometimes great things end because they're too ahead of their time. RIP Acceleracers, you were the peak of Hot Wheels storytelling.
