To be fair, the sentiment was "it will be a landslide in favour" (like the electric scooters). It indeed wasn't, but still went in the expected way. People visiting Paris were not polled, only Parisians were, that's why I only explained this point of view. But yes it does benefit everyone that doesn't visit Paris in a SUV. Note that it also impacts Parisians with a SUV when they are parking outside of their resident zones (a resident parking permit allows you to park in 4 zones around your home).

If only parisians were polled doea that not mke this the dwfinition of nimby bs? This isnt necessarily a terrible idea, just a terrible, punitive attack on an unfashionable vehicle type. This would be much better if they charged b^ the foot or something rather than having 2 categories with such a large cost difference

  Here is a news article talking about that (in French) from before the vote was done: https://www.francetvinfo.fr/france/ile-de-france/venir-a-paris-en-suv-4x4-ou-berline-on-vous-explique-les-enjeux-du-vote-sur-l-augmentation-du-prix-du-stationnement_6340843.html https://www.francetvinfo.fr/france/ile-de-france/venir-a-par... Key part translation: "According to a poll, 61% of Parisians support the implementation of parking pricing based on the weight of the vehicle". This tweet is quoted in the news: https://twitter.com/franckboisselet/status/1752675892692701650 https://twitter.com/franckboisselet/status/17526758926927016... Translation: "What's the point of organizing an expensive vote on SUVs where everyone agrees." Seeing as some arrondissements were very much against that change, it's not hard to find anecdotas of places where the sentiment is against it.
