Volvo collaborated with MKOR on a market study to gain a better understanding of consumer perspectives.

This research focused on aspects related to the usage and purchase of electric cars, the impact of subsidy programs on purchase decisions, the satisfaction levels of electric car owners, and a deeper understanding of consumer behavior.

The data obtained from this study will allow Volvo to better understand the buying, leasing, and usage behavior, and identify the user profile of electric car owners in Romania.

Analysis of Consumer Behavior in the Electric Car Market in Romania

The data obtained from the behavior and attitude study revealed the context in which electric car users in Romania make purchasing decisions, as well as aspects regarding the mode of ownership (leasing, personal property, or rental).

Additionally, our client gained relevant insights about consumer perceptions of their brand, their positioning in the market, consumption habits regarding the electric car market in Romania, and their position in the top of electric car brands in the country.
