My parents never had the need to own a large vehicle when my sister and I were kids. The biggest car they ever had was a Ford Taurus, and that had plenty of room to lug me and a couple friends to the rink with all of our hockey gear.

But what is your definition of an SUV? Honda CRVs and Ford Escapes are SUVs, yet they are built on a car chassis, and are similar in fuel economy. Don't forget, to a European, a Ford Taurus is quite a large vehicle, probably unnecessarily large.
Also, what FFR said.
