You make it sound like way simpler than it is in reality.

Tax criteria by canton:

Displacement only: AG, FR, GL, GR, LU, NW, OW, SH, SO, TG, VS, ZG

Gross weight only: AI, AR, BE, BL, JU, SG, UR

Horsepower and gross weight: SZ, TI, VD

Displacement and gross weight: ZH

Net weight and CO2 emissions: BS

Horsepower only: GE

CO2 emissions only: NE

And for the full picture you still need to add the discounts or exemptions for low and zero emission vehicles that also vary wildly.

Did folks not want federal officials deciding the rule? Because it seems quite inefficient to have so many variants.
