I think making the ownership of larger cars more expensive is probably one of the best ways to make them less attractive to the average driver. Whether parking fees, taxes or other methods are the best way remains to be seen.

Trucks and SUVs make sense for work purposes. As such the law should consider 'cosmetic. Damage such as dents and scratches normal wear and tear, and companies are not allowed to deduct value for it. Instantly it would be impossible to rent them at the airport. (Uhaul type places still will, but nobody else) leases would also end since they can’t demand perfect condition returns.
Not in Europe.
Here, businesses and craftsmen use either vans like the VW T4, Renault Master or Ford Transit, or smaller “cargo station wagons”/small vans like VW Caddy, Renault Kangoo etc.
These offer way more practical room on much less traffic space.
And safer for both the occupants and traffic, have lower emissions and better mileage, are cheaper, more versatile…
