That happened in the UK too. Vans are differently taxed to cars here for businesses. Vans are defined by the volume of their cargo area, which these just about meet. Thankfully though, the government changed the rules so that for any new leases or on the date of renewal, double cab pickups are considered to be cars for tax purposes.
Cars are taxed on their co2 emissions and on the user it’s given to (ie not the company). This still needs to change as it doesn’t quite work anymore as the massive electric SUVs have taken over. A think tank has recommended a weight and/or price component so hopefully at the next budget they’ll change it.

Maybe you can lobby to get the same?
