The article is talking about the size and weight of vehicles.
In this context, there is effectively no distinction between a modern minivan and a modern SUV.
1995 Honda Civic - curb weight of 2100 pounds.
2000 Ford Focus - curb weight of 2500 pounds.
2023 Toyota Corolla - curb weight of 3000-3100 pounds (depending on trim level).
2023 Toyota Sienna ("minivan") - curb weight of 4600-4700 pounds.
2023 Toyota Highlander (SUV) - curb weight of 4300-4500 pounds.
2023 Honda Odyssey ("minivan") - curb weight of 4500-4600 pounds.
2023 Honda Passport (SUV) - curb weight of 4200-4300 pounds.
2023 Honda Pilot (SUV) - curb weight of 4000-4700 pounds.
Anyway, the minivan is slightly heavier than the equivalent SUV - but close enough to not really matter.
