The average tansport van is about 18ft long. And the standard U.S. parking space is also 18ft long, this means the average van will still slightly stick out no matter what, but by no means as much as a 22ft beast on wheels.
There are also older model vans, which are more common, only reaching 16ft in length, so those will be able to properly park in standard parking spots.
Ok, I don’t know enough about cars, vans, parking or the imperial system to understand why a van would fit in one space but this car cannot.

Vans are made to be practical and have as much cargo space as possible.
They have more space while being smaller than a truck.
A truck is mostly made for looks and to be big.
There is a reason why in Europa we almost never see a truck when our roads are full of vans.
Because most vans aren’t unreasonably long.
