Nah, just ban them.

Extra Tax and Fees just makes it a poor people tax, and rich assholes will carry on as if nothing changes. A straight-up ban makes them not appear at all.

    This is the better option. But, if you're gonna do that, there needs to be some kind of program that allows people to sell their banned vehicle to the government for above market value so they can afford to purchase a comparable, but more suitable vehicle instead. Otherwise, you're gonna have a bunch of pissed off people with six-figure, three-ton lawn ornaments crying about how they couldn't have known their vehicle would get banned and it's now useless.

    Another solution is implementing a ban that will get into effect in 10 years, when the value of such cars would be lower anyway.

    This prevents people from buying new big cars in the meantime anyway.
