摘要

本研究提出了第一个大规模的、有代表性的调查，以评估中东消费者对电动汽车（ev）的偏好。本研究利用5000多名阿拉伯联合酋长国（UAE）受访者的大规模数据收集，采用了严谨而新颖的方法，捕捉了对电动汽车采用的积极和消极影响，以及环境、金融和规范方面的影响。我们的调查包含了阻碍电动汽车普及的52个具体障碍，包括技术、经济、基础设施和心理因素。财务成本观念尤其突出；然而，由于巨大的直接影响，一般的环境观点对购买可能性有巨大的影响，然后与电动汽车的知识/经验显著相关，这本身显著降低了采用的感知障碍。了解阿联酋消费者的态度和信念对于了解决策者如何就电动汽车政策进行沟通和制定政策至关重要。我们提供了一种新颖的建模方法，包括理论推导的四阶段调解，以及阿联酋、中东和其他地区政府行动的建议。

A novel model for barriers to electric vehicle adoption in the Middle East

This study presents the first large-scale, representative survey to assess consumer preferences for electric vehicles (EVs) in the Middle East. Leveraging a large-scale data collection of more than 5,000 United Arab Emirates (UAE) respondents, this study employs a rigorous and novel methodology, capturing positive and negative influences on EV adoption, alongside environmental, financial, and normative dimensions. Our survey incorporates 52 specific barriers to EV adoption, covering technical, economic, infrastructural, and psychological factors. Financial cost perceptions were particularly salient; yet, general environmental views have an outsized effect on purchase likelihood, due to a large direct effect, and then notable associations with knowledge/experience of EVs, which themselves notably reduce perceived barriers to adoption. Understanding UAE consumers’ attitudes and beliefs are important for knowing how decision-makers can communicate about and target policy on EVs. We offer both a novel modelling approach, involving theoretically-derived four-stage mediation, and recommendations for government action in the UAE, Middle East and beyond.

期刊介绍： Transportation Research Part D: Transport and Environment focuses on original research exploring the environmental impacts of transportation, policy responses to these impacts, and their implications for transportation system design, planning, and management. The journal comprehensively covers the interaction between transportation and the environment, ranging from local effects on specific geographical areas to global implications such as natural resource depletion and atmospheric pollution. We welcome research papers across all transportation modes, including maritime, air, and land transportation, assessing their environmental impacts broadly. Papers addressing both mobile aspects and transportation infrastructure are considered. The journal prioritizes empirical findings and policy responses of regulatory, planning, technical, or fiscal nature. Articles are policy-driven, accessible, and applicable to readers from diverse disciplines, emphasizing relevance and practicality. We encourage interdisciplinary submissions and welcome contributions from economically developing and advanced countries alike, reflecting our international orientation.
