Cars: a suggestion

Cars: a suggestion

Let's imagine if the regulation established that the taxation (VAT for example)  was inversely proportional to the efficiency of the vehicles.

A very small, light car equipped with an efficient engine would have a much lower VAT tax  than a large, heavy and a low mileage per energy.

If we followed this path, there would be a natural tendency to generate less emissions and probably with the "popularization" of small cars, the same infrastructure, whether in cities or on roads, would have increased capacity to meet the ever increasing demand.

Does it make sense?
