Abstract:
... The environmental benefits of Electric Vehicles (EVs) vary greatly depending on the local power structure. A realistic question is, after the Chinese government completely abolished subsidies for EVs in 2022, whether consumers are willing to take over from the government and pay extra for the perceived green attributes of EVs? The scant literature barely provided valued information. We, explore wh ...
