    Not saying this is what you’re saying, but the average french SUV doesn’t cost 100k. In-laws bought one almost new for 15k. They’re not poor, but definitely not rich, and would think twice about buying one next time if it means they pay more for parking.

      15k seems like a Dacia Duster. That isn’t considered a SUV according to the limits of that law (1400 kg)

      It’s more to limit those useless monsters like the range Rovers

      15k for an almost new SUV? I think you are probably confusing a CUV with an SUV

        15k € used. The (french) car dealer called the car a SUV, but I’ll admit I’m not an expert.

        But even if you call that something different, there aren’t a lot of 100k SUVs in France, I can tell you that.

          French people will drive a 20 year old kangoo and be proud of it. I know because that is me.
