Abstract (De)
Electric vehicles can significantly contribute to decarbonizing transport – but does that really matter to consumers? Based on a survey in Switzerland, one of the fast-growing European EV markets, we find that moving closer to the purchase decision the share of well-informed adopters increases, but their climate optimism decreases.
