This thread was weird to read as an owner of a CR-V. I checked and it’s just under the weight limit for the new law, and it fits easily in “compact” parking spaces, but I think of it as an SUV because that’s what it looks like.
Yes it is aimed against heavy and large suv, as they are more dangerous for other road users, more polluting and take too much of public place in a cramped city.
A CR-V and other “normal” suv does not take more place than a sedan

At least in the US they call them crossovers, unless they’re on a truck chassis, then it’s an SUV.
This distinction isn’t really common parlance or anything, but it usually is how the manufacturers call them.
