I'm all in to ban SUV. But by doing that you're gonna threaten the masculinity and sense of identity of a large set of people. Intelligent politicians will use this to drift the debate into elite green progressists vs working class who just want a piece of the cake. To not get into this minefield lets not forget that corporations acount for a very large part of energy use and that perhaps useless transport of useless goods should be restricted, also restricting putting energy-intensive electronics in gadgets that don't need them.. There are tons of measures that can target corporations that will be easier to control, have more measurable and predictable outcomes and won't contribute to desintegrate the social cohesion and will stop the working class from getting eaten up by the far right.
