This study explores the factors that influence consumer likelihood of purchasing two different types of alternative-fuel vehicles – flexible fuel and hybrid-electric. Data for the study come from an online survey of US automobile owners. Results suggest that concerns about energy security, the environment, and the availability of alternative fuels, along with demographic factors, have significant effects on consumer purchase expectations for alternative-fuel vehicles.
► Purchase expectations for FFVs and HEVs are examined using a national survey.
► Current HEV ownership decreases the likelihood of future FFV purchase.
► Rural residents are more likely to purchase FFVs but less likely to purchase HEVs.
► Attitudes toward climate change, fuel security and agriculture influence likelihood of AFV purchase.
