Parisians have approved a steep rise in parking rates for SUVs in the French capital.
The proposals were approved by 54.55% of voters, but turnout was only about 5.7%.
The move triples parking rates for cars weighing 1.6 tonnes or more to €18 (£16; $20) an hour in inner Paris.
The vote was called by Socialist Mayor Anne Hidalgo, who has argued that SUVs are dangerous and bad for the environment.
