An SUV sold today has as good or better MpG than a sedan sold in 1999.
For example the 1999 Subaru Legacy is 22 city / 29 highway.
A 2019 Subaru Outback has 25 city / 32 highway, 2019 Forester 26 city / 33 highway. Their brand new and huge three row Subaru Ascent is 21 city / 27 highway, just 1 MpG less.
Granted not all SUVs are this fuel efficient, but they're definitely better than they were in the 1990s. Most of the vehicles with legitimately bad fuel efficiency like the Nissan Xterra (16 city / 22 highway) got discontinued.
