| Summary: | Electric vehicles have been popularized as an
environmentally friendly alternative to fuel-based transportation. The
Malaysian government and vehicle manufacturers have encouraged the adoption of
electric cars, yet Malaysians are seen to be lagging in adopting electric cars.
This study is poised to examine the determinants of consumers' purchase intention
on electricity, underpinned by The Extended Theory of Planned Behaviour. This
quantitative research is set on purposive sampling while PLS-SEM is utilized
for data analysis. Findings from 362 respondents reveal that technology
readiness, perceived cost, perceived symbol, and knowledge lead to electric car
purchase intention. This study provides insights for policymakers and
manufacturers towards encouraging purchase intention of electric cars. |
