New research from @JonnAxsen & @Zoe_E_Long explores what attracts drivers to SUVs and what might motivate SUV drivers to downsize. Spoiler: it's likely to take strong policy to change the trend towards SUVs Read the full article: doi.org/10.1016/j.erss…

There are so many challenges to reaching net-zero emissions! Technology scaling, coordination, and policy actions in all jurisdictions need to come together ASAP. Other experts and myself share our perspectives: connectedworld.com/the-how-when-a…

Newly published research from my team explores how consumers view "automobility" - car culture and its impacts on individuals and society - and how automobility perceptions predict interest in shared, electric, and automated mobilities Great job @gauer_h on your first PhD study!
Viviane H Gauer@gauer_h

Novel research from @SFU_START explores the link between consumer engagement with aspects of automobility and consumer interest in shared, automated, and electric mobility. The paper - my first PhD study - was recently published in TRD: doi.org/10.1016/j.trd.…

And we found some cognitive dissonance - SUV drivers absolutely care about the climate crisis and believe we need to take urgent action...but their SUVs aren't the problem. There's a disconnect between what 'drives' the problem and what SUV drivers think we should do about it.

We surveyed and talked to SUV drivers - they love their SUVs and aren't interested in downsizing. We find that their attraction to SUVs is about safety, space, and social status. Thanks @DavidSuzukiFDN for featuring our research! rabble.ca/environment/su…

In our latest research, we examine public support for transport policies and find 3 groups of voters: those who are Universally Supportive, those who are Supportive Except Carbon Tax, and those who are Mostly Opposing of policies. doi.org/10.1016/j.enpo…

@scottiehardman Great achievement Scott & Gil! I'm curious - if the result was framed as 80% of PEV owners decide to continue adoption would it seem more favourable? Do we know % of car owners that stick with a similar vehicle over time (size, brand, etc)? Maybe 20% discontinuance is "low"?

The EV buyers we surveyed originally purchased an EV between 2011-2018, of these 58% had not made a decision on EV ownership, 9% no longer own any EV, and 34% own a newer EV. Of those that made a purchase decision 20% discontinued EV ownership and now own only gasoline vehicles.

My book, The Citizen's Guide to Climate Success, has been shortlisted. Happy (and humble) to share the stage with such excellent authors. The 2020 Donner Prize Shortlist Announcement youtu.be/5twasqjfWEI via @YouTube

We recently released a report & research brief highlighting consumer thoughts on shared, automated, and electric vehicles. Will these techs help or hinder climate action? Combining with EVs - which consumers seem to like - will help.
SFU_START@SFU_START

Do Canadians want shared, automated, and electric transport innovations? About 1/3 say they want ride-hailing, a fully-automated vehicle, and an EV. There could be opportunity to leverage interest and combine innovations Check out our new research brief: sfustart.files.wordpress.com/2018/08/newmob…

@ClimateDuncan @DanWoy @JonnAxsen @molszyns Second, valuation of MPG alone was similar to valuation of the fuel economy label. So it could be that MPG is most valuable/familiar metric to consumers and that drives valuation of the fuel economy label (pun intended 😉). Note that this is an American study.

@ClimateDuncan @DanWoy @JonnAxsen @molszyns 2 ideas: First, the fuel economy label had a few different forms of info so there could be some value to having a few forms of info in one place. Related, with more forms of info there's a greater chance of having one that appeals to a given consumer.
