Parisians vote in favour of tripling parking costs for SUVs
Parisians voted to triple parking charges for SUV cars weighing more than 1.6 tons from outside the city, aiming to make the city greener and friendlier for pedestrians and cyclists.
The increased parking fees for SUVs would be €18 per hour for the first two hours in central districts and up to €225 for a six-hour stay, compared to €6 and €75 for smaller cars respectively. In outer areas, fees would range from €12 to €150.
The measure was supported by 54.5% of the voters, although only 5.7% of the eligible voters participated in the election.
Parisians voted yes to a tripled parking fee for SUVs and other heavier cars. Now the price is increased significantly to park the largest vehicles in the city center — up to 200 SEK per hour.
