“…Incentives are supposed to provide motivation to buy new and scrap old vehicles. Zaman and Zaccour [22] analyzed the decision patterns of individual consumers and came to the conclusion that the effectiveness of incentives depends on customer readiness to replace their vehicles. Customers with low income and low readiness to replace can be persuaded to speed up their replacement decisions.…”

New propulsion technologies and the development of electromobility increase the environmental efficiency of the transport sector. However, the current structure of car fleets with a large number of old cars with worse environmental parameters undermines the benefits of technological progress in the automotive industry. Older cars may require a more extensive service, involving a thorough overhaul, repair or even replacement of many parts. The result of using additional resources is a deterioration of environmental performance. This study considers various maintenance and repair scenarios and focuses on the use phase using the example of the popular Ford Focus passenger car model. The life cycle optimization model was used for environmental assessment, which determines the optimal duration of the car use phase, accounting for detailed service information and the type and environmental efficiency class of the different fuel versions. This model can be an effective tool for car fleet management and car replacement policy. Detailed life cycle inventories of 40 Ford Focus II diesel and petrol cars that represent all maintenance and repairs are the inputs to the life cycle optimization model. The inventory data were provided by the Ford Service Center in Szczecin (Poland), which regularly serviced the cars with a mileage of up to 200,000 km. Inventory at other stages of the cars’ life cycles was modeled using Ecoinvent data. The results show that by considering these vehicle servicing aspects on the basis of more detailed data, impact assessments are better represented compared to other studies. Depending on the replacement policy, the contribution of vehicle maintenance and repair can account for almost half of the cumulative life cycle burdens.

“…Wen et al [58] focus on manufacturers' remanufacturing strategies. In the field of recycling policy, tax or subsidy incentives [62], depositrefund policy [38], take-back regulations [5] and cap-and-trade regulation [61] are measures that have been widely studied. Some algorithms are also used to optimize various complex problems [3,24,20,22,21].…”

<p style='text-indent:20px;'>To reduce the negative impact of informal recycling on the environment, we consider the competition in the recycling industry to explore the manufacturer's collection channel choice and the optimal points-exchange level. In this paper, a closed-loop supply chain model including a manufacturer and an informal recycler (IR) is constructed. Stackelberg game theory is used as a theoretical guide. In addition, we study the optimal decision problem under the profit maximization model. We find that the points-exchange offer increases the sales of new products and alleviates competition from IR. The manufacturer prefers to personally implement points-exchange activities to directly collect used products from consumers when the disposal revenue of IR is low. The manufacturer's exchange strategy forces IR to increase the acquisition price and face large cost pressure, which significantly reduces the collection quantity of IR. In the coordination problem, the revenue-sharing contract allows both the manufacturer and the third party to be in a win-win situation. We focus on the effectiveness of points-exchange incentives for manufacturers and third parties. Future research could explore the diversity of exchange offers by including government agencies in the closed-loop supply chain.</p>

“…Study of decision-making choices on vehicles usually considers cost and effectiveness throughout their life cycle [78,79], that is, from purchase to retirement, so bus operators will also make decisions on NEB or FB based on the utility during the life cycle. The government chooses whether to implement CTS according to the costs and benefits of the subsidy mechanism.…”
