A Stated Preference Study for a Car Ownership Model in the Context of Developing Countries

Consumer learning behavior in choosing electric motorcycles

“…Two special issues of the Journal of Transport Economics and Policy, volume 22(1) in 1988, and Transportation, volume 21(2) in 1994, and Louviere et al (2000) have thoroughly described the SP method, experiment design, and analysis. This method has been widely applied in many disciplines, such as transportation (Bhat and Sardesai 2006, Kumar and Krishnarao 2006, Hess et al 2007, marketing (Lee et al 2006), and environmental valuation (Arsenio et al 2006).…”

Factors influencing consumers’ light commercial vehicle purchase intention in a developing country

“…Especially, several demographic factors were frequently highlighted as significant contributors to consumers' motor vehicle purchase decisions. Not surprisingly, monthly household or individual income was found as one of the major determinants of consumers' vehicle ownership decisions (Ede and Panigrahi, 2000;Lam et al, 2000;Romilly et al, 2001;Yılmaz, 2001;Choo and Mokhtarian, 2004;Kumar and Krishna Rao, 2006;Potoglou and Kanaroglou, 2008a;Bhat et al, 2009;Nolan, 2010;Prieto and Caemmerer, 2013;Wong, 2013). Respondents' age group gave significant evidence to explain consumers' vehicle purchase decisions in early studies (Ede and Panigrahi, 2000;Choo and Mokhtarian, 2004;Cao et al, 2006;Hackbarth and Madlener, 2013;Prieto and Caemmerer, 2013;Sanko et al, 2014).…”

“…Gender was found as an important factor that may influence consumers' vehicle demand (Ede and Panigrahi, 2000;Choo and Mokhtarian, 2004;Sen, 2006, Cao et al, 2006;Prieto and Caemmerer, 2013;Sanko et al, 2014). Household size can be an important explanatory variable in examining consumers' purchase behaviour and many early studies (Choo and Mokhtarian, 2004;Kumar and Krishna Rao, 2006;Potoglou, 2008;Potoglou and Kanaroglou, 2008a;Bhat et al, 2009;Prieto and Caemmerer, 2013;Wong, 2013;Sanko et al, 2014) found significant association between household size and vehicle type ownership. There has been recent work in which respondents' educational level was demonstrated as the significant contributor to consumers' vehicle ownership (Ede and Panigrahi, 2000;Yılmaz, 2001;Choo and Mokhtarian, 2004;Cao et al, 2006;Potoglou, 2008;Hackbarth and Madlener, 2013;Prieto and Caemmerer, 2013).…”

Car Ownership Models in Iran: A Review of Methods and Determinants

“…Furthermore, an increase in private car use will decrease public transportation patronage since they are substitutes (Kermanshah and Kitamura, 1995;Paulley et al, 2006). Adverse social, economic and environmental consequences (Loukopoulos, 2005) of car ownership growth has caused the government, vehicle manufacturers, environmental protection groups and transport planners pay a special attention to the level of car ownership (Kumar and Rao, 2006).…”
