I think that the number one reason why SUV's are as popular as they are is the ridiculously low gasoline taxes in the US. Even with gas prices as 'high' as they are now, gas prices in the US are low compared to Europe and the developed parts of Asia.
It would be political suicide for a politician to suggest this, but its a way to make people who pollute more pay more. It'll also help to reduce your country's dependence on foreign oil.
