      Idk if it’s still on but at some point in Poland people were installing grates in the back of front seats because it legally made the car (even something like Daewoo Tico) into a truck which allowed tax benefits.

      But few people but a car based on emissions, so why then did SUVs become popular? Or is it the case of manufacturers wanted us to like SUVs, so they made that happen.

        People don’t buy cars based on emissions. Car makers make them based on emissions because lower requirements are easier to meet while including things people do want.
