Perspective of Technological Acceptance Model toward Electric Vehicles

Abstract

The invention of electric vehicles (EVs) is a leap in the fields of automobile industry, rationalization of energy and conservation of the environment. This study focuses on adapting the model of acceptance of technology to identify consumer's behavior on the use of EV. The technology acceptance model was developed by Fred Davis (1989). The study community consists of 550 consumers from Amman city, the results show there is strong relation between independent variables (Perceived usefulness, Attitude toward using EV, Perceived ease of Use EV, Perceived the challenges of use) and the dependent variable (EV Use), where the value of the coefficient indicator is positive (0.415) and the value of the calculated F is (21.767), which is greater than the tabular value (2.89), and the moral value is (0.0), which is less than (0.05). This is an indicator that there is statistical impact for independent factors on consumer behavior.
