Degrowth

I could be wrong, but I think there are other possible reasons SUVs were mentioned. I think having more walkable cities would part of (or at least adjacent to) the degrowth movement. As such, SUVs are kinda the poster child for the vehicle size arms race which makes roads less safe for pedestrians and cyclists.

I wouldn't be surprised to see pickup trucks on that list too, however they do have a somewhat more plausible use case.

SUV

calling out SUV's specifically for multiple reasons - ICE SUV's are the worst, having the low fuel efficiency of work trucks, while being less safe than trucks or cars for passengers or pedestrians. EV SUV's are just taking the same problems - truck frames, lots of weight, poor visibility - and adding an EV powertrain to ameliorate the fuel inefficiency. But since they have to haul around all the extra SUV weight, they're at best a poor compromise instead of a large improvement.
