My canton in Switzerland uses this formula:
tax = k * P*0.9 / m*0.05
P: power in kW
m: weight in kg
k: currently 7.125
Minimizing tax means a small engine and a heavy car. (Though the tax difference between 1000 kg and 3000 kg is only 6%.) They also don't do subsidies for EVs, with the rationale that EVs affect road maintenance as much as other cars. Given that, the formula is backwards in terms of weight.
