Market evolution scenarios for electric vehicles
Abstract
What share of the market are electric vehicles (EVs) expected to have in Germany by 2020? This was the question tackled by this study. The economic potential for electric cars was ascertained by considering several thousand real-life driving profiles of conventional cars, as well as technical and economic data for different scenarios. Factors which can hinder the diffusion of electric cars, their restricted driving range, for example, or the limited range of models, are integrated as are supporting factors in the form of the willingness to pay more for an innovative technology.
