Because there are no tax exemptions for SUV's.

However, there are tax exemptions for pickups if they have a bed that can fit a EUR-pallet. So much so that driving pic related is cheaper than driving a hybrid Volvo.

Did you always think the Lincoln Blackwood and the Escalade EXT made no sense? Of course they don't in the US market. Here, a loaded offers almost S-class luxury, even more interior room, and for the price of a C-class, and the running costs of a Smart car.

>a loaded offers almost S-class luxury
That's an almost Murrikan tier opinion. The loaded ones look exactly like the cheapest ones, only with leather seats and some fake wood covering the cheap plastics.

>and the running costs of a Smart car
That's just wrong. Even after a gas conversion (for several thousand bucks) the fuel costs barely reach those of regular cars, let alone a city car.
>>
>>14111007
Having sat in a few S-classes(granted, not the newest ones), I think a loaded Denali or Laramie is pretty much on par, with more interior room. Maybe it's in between the last and the newest generation.

After propane conversion, the fuel cost is identical to said Smart car. Smarts run about 20km/l, trucks 5-8km/l, and LPG is about 25-40% of the price here. However, pickups have zero (€0,-) taxes here, while the Smart car pays about 500-1000 euros a year, depending on fuel and exact weight. Meanwhile, the pickups also get some nice financial bonuses like quick depreciation and such, making their running costs extremely low. Lower than a city car for most businesspeople anyways.
>>
>>14111007
Also, people don't have to pay for two kinds of purchase tax, BTW and BPM. The first is always 21%, the second is dependant on pollution(CO2 per KM). On a truck or SUV, that would be about €120.000. Same for a V12 S class. Now, if you could get said S-class as a ute......

I do. It's a V6 Ford Explorer that grabs me around 13MPG combined. Yes, I have done all maint., checked all the components that make MPG a thing, and done almost everything to it from getting a less restrictive air flow filter to removing the traction control fuse which deactivates the automatic 4x4 which uses gas when it shouldn't.

6,000lb SUV, never again.

It's either going to be nearly-untouched stuff where you sink up to your axles, a field you can drive anything on anyway, or a building site that's had everything squished down by heavy things anyway.
