Abstract

With the rapid development of the global economy, the consumption of energy has increased significantly year by year, which has accordingly contributed to the ever-growing carbon emissions. Therefore, promoting electric vehicles is regarded as an important and promising way to reduce automobile exhaust. This study compares the demand preference, and behavioral preferences sociodemographic traits of users of conventional vehicles (CVs) and electric vehicles (EVs) based on the findings of an online survey conducted in China. In accordance with earlier studies, this report reveals that EV users are often men, have advanced degrees, high salaries, and frequently own several vehicles. Additionally, EV users perceive fewer practical barriers to EV use than CV users and have more positive attitudes and social norms than CV users. One of the elements from the Theory of Planned Behavior that is modeled in regression research is the possibility that CV and EV consumers will use or purchase an EV. This essay examines methods to increase EV adoption for both current users and non-users based on the findings.
