Abstract

Electric vehicles have a number of advantages that help people live a more sustainable lifestyle, but the role of their users in encouraging others to embrace them has not been studied. Recent studies have identified three major motivations for people to embrace electric vehicles as a sustainable mode of transportation: personal benefits, moral standards, and hedonic. In this study, we focused on the key benefits of electric vehicles to see what motivations they elicit among car buyers, so that current owners of electric vehicles could highlight them while encouraging other groups of consumers to select electric cars over conventional ones. We noticed that reducing GHG emissions and ownership costs motivate at least two of the key motivations, increasing the likelihood of persuading people to accept EVs to join the consumers with responsible lifestyles.
