Wouldn't it make more sense to base it on length and width? I'd assume there's already various taxes on fuel consumption, but in parking, length and width are what actually matters.

Weight matters to the maintenance of the parking spaces too.

I'd assume that lack of space is a lot more critical than maintenance costs in Paris.
