Résumé

With the paradigm shift towards transport electrification, Electric Light Vehicles (EL-Vs) represent a low-cost, promising pathway to smart urban mobility. Despite this, the current market penetration of EL-Vs is relatively low compared to that of other e-powered vehicles such us e-bikes or e-cars. A major hindrance in wide market deployment of EL-Vs is the users’ low awareness of their existence. The doctoral thesis pursues a beter understanding of the prior attitude of the population towards EL-Vs through data collection in six demonstration cities, an online questionnaire survey and on-site interviews. A mathematical model also explores eight a-priori perceptions and attitudes (indicators) towards EL-V usage: Willingness to use per trip purpose, Willingness to use as a part of a multimodal trip, Ease of parking, Comfort, Safety, Luggage capacity, Charging convenience and Affordability.
