Conclusion
• The main objective of this study is to examine how attitudes as measured by ECNs and ICNs are related to environmentally responsible PIN of EV. This study has found that ICNs were negatively related to green PIN. This indicates that individuals are more likely to choose options that maximize utility based on their preferences, knowledge of alternatives and budget (Roche et al., 2010). They consider fuel efficiency, fuel consumption and comfort of the vehicle within their limited budget when they take the decision to purchase any vehicle. For the EV, they may consider the convenience of recycling or charging batteries. Therefore, when the vehicle manufacturers design their EVs, they should take this finding into consideration.
