Sentio Research Norway (2012) carried out an online survey with a random sample
of 1000 Norwegians 18 years and older about whether they think an EV could satisfy
their transport needs. The characteristics of those who answered “to a large degree”
were 30 years and younger, did not live in families with children, were single without
children, lived in cities with more than 50 000 inhabitants, not in sparsely populated
areas, and students. Those who considered an EV as car number one were 30 years
and younger, living in Oslo/Akershus (the metropolitan area), singles with or without
children, had low household income, were students. People in the age group 31–39
years and families with children considered EV as car number two.
