본 연구의 시사점은 친환경 자동차의 제품속성 요인, 그리고 차세대 친환경 자동차에 대한 정부의 정책적 지원이 소비자의 구매 의도에 어떤 영향을 미치는지에 대해 국내 서울 친환경자동차 소비자에 대한 웹 설문 조사 통해 밝히고자하였다. 본 연구결과는 친환경자동차의 제품속성요인과 구매의도를 검증한 결과 친환경자동차의 제품속성요인인 경제성, 이미지, 기능성 및 서비스편의성이 소비자의 구매의도에 정(+)의 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 그리고 친환경자동차의 제품속성요인과 친환경자동차 구매의도간의 정부지원정책의 조절효과를 검증한 결과 정부나 지방자치단체의 차량가격보조금지원이나 자동차세지원, 연료세절감지원 등은 조절효과가 없는 반면 이산화탄소 방출을 방지하는 탄소세지원은 톤당 5,000원을 지원하건 톤당 10,000원을 지원하간 조절효과가 높은 것으로 나타났다. 이는 친환경자동차구매를 선호하는 소비자들이 사회적 가치를 추구하는 환경적 요인을 고려하면서 세제지원을 받는 것을 더 선호하는 것으로 나타나 정부나 지자체들은 단순히 차량보조금지원이나 연료세 지원보다는 탄소세지원을 적극 검토할 필요가 있는 것으로 나타났다.

The vehicle market has developed environment-friendly vehicles to comply with fuel economy regulations and exhaust regulations that have become stricter and stricter over time. Many studies have been conducted to improve the travel performance and fuel economy of environment-friendly vehicles, and vehicle manufacturers have been studying how to manufacture light-weight vehicles in order to improve the fuel economy of both existing vehicles and the newer environment-friendly vehicles. Exemplary light-weight vehicle technologies optimizes the design of the vehicle body structure, which is a vehicle weight-reducing method that modifies component shapes or layouts to optimize the structure of the vehicle. In addition, the new process technology uses new light-weight and very strong materials, and not typical materials, to manufacture light-weight vehicles. This study aims at the optimal design of vehicle body structures using multi-materials for the Fender-Apron, which is an important frame member for the external front side of a vehicle body, by conducting FEA (Finite Element Analysis) and multi-material bonding.

The purpose of this research is to identify factors affecting consumer's brand preference toward environment-friendly products like electric vehicles in Bangkok, Thailand. The researcher conducted the study based on a quantitative approach and adapted a nonprobability sampling as a convenience sampling method. The data were collected from 400 respondents living in Bangkok, who are 18 years old and above, with significant knowledge of electric vehicles. This study adapted the Structural Equation Model (SEM) and Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA) to examine the model accuracy, reliability and verification influence of various variables. The results revealed that social influence has significant effect on environment concern as well as a positive effect on attitude. The initial significance of environment concern leads to a positive effect on fuel efficiency, followed by brand preference. Lastly, attitude has a significant effect on brand preference as attitude of consumers toward environment-friendly products affects the encouragement of brand preference, which largely depends on individual opinion. From an environmental concern, the researchers identified fuel efficiency and attitude having a positive and significant effect on brand preference toward environment-friendly products for electric vehicles. The authors also found that environmental concern and social influences on green purchasing behavior were significantly interrelated.

The purpose of this study is to estimate consumer preferences on hybrid cars and electric cars by employing a choice experiment reflecting the various market conditions, such as different projected market shares of green vehicles and $CO_2$ emission regulations. Depending on different market scenarios, we examine as to which attribute and individual characteristic affect the preferences of potential consumers on green vehicles and further, forecast the potential market shares of green cars. The primary results, estimated by a conditional logit and panel probit models, indicate that sales price, fuel cost, maximum speed, emission of air pollutants, fuel economy, and distance between fuel stations can significantly affect consumer's choice of environment-friendly cars. The second finding is that the unique features of electric cars might better appeal to consumers as the market conditions for electric cars are improved. Third, education, age, and gender can significantly affect individual preferences. Finally, as the market conditions become more favorable toward green cars, the forecasted market shares of hybrid and electric vehicles will increase up to 67% and 14%.

PURPOSES : The objective of this study is to investigate the capability of the combined model of traffic simulation, emission and air dispersion models on the impact analysis of air quality of mobile sources such as vehicles. METHODS : The improvement of the quality of life brings about the increasing interest of the public environment. Many endeavors including the travel demand management, the application of the state-of-the-art ITS technologies, the promotion of eco-friendly vehicles have been tried in transportation area to reduce the modal emissions. Especially, it is expected that the increasing number of eco-friendly vehicles in the road network would be able to reduce the pipe-tail emissions tremendously. From this perspective, we have performed a study on the impact analysis of the popularization of the eco-friendly vehicle in the place of the fossil fuel energy powered vehicles on the surrounding air quality using the combined framework of microscopic traffic simulation, emission and air dispersion model. RESULTS : The combined model successfully captured the effect of moving to the eco-friendly vehicles on the air quality, and the results showed that the increasing usage of eco-friendly vehicles can improve the surrounding air quality tremendously and that the air dispersion model plays a crucial role in the investigation of the air quality change around the main corridor. CONCLUSIONS : This study demonstrated the capability of the combined model showing the spatio-tempral change of emission concentration.

Seoul Metropolitan Rapid Transit Corporation - which is operating the subway lines No. 5, 6, 7 and 8 of Seoul's subway - has been operating a variety of motor cars and rail inspection vehicles to transport workers and materials into the tunnel at night after the daily revenue service for the maintenance of tunnel structure and track. However, the air quality in tunnels has been contaminated due to the operation of diesel engine cars, and rail inspection vehicles are now having higher chances of risks since the lightweight vehicles made with aluminum bogie became too obsolete. In this study, MRT type eco-friendly electric multi-inspection car has been elaborated for the purpose of improvement of tunnel environment and replacement of motor cars and rail inspection vehicles.

With the recent increasing interest in sustainability management, the latest environmental report tends to be substituted by the expanded sustainability management report. In this work, I would like to introduce the management pattern of a global enterprise that values environmental soundness (environmental friendly) and implements eco-friendly measures. The enterprise chosen in this study is FedEx. In this article, FedEx case is presented how companies can adopt environmental friendly management in their businesses. FedEx has maintained an eco-friendly management since the introduction of the company's eco-friendly transport trucks in 2003, following its development in 2000. In 2005, it installed a solar power plant that can supply up to 80% of the electricity consumed by Oakland Logistics Center in California, USA. FedEx has published the "Global Enterprise Citizenship Report," which contains its business developments in 2009. FedEx has worked hard to minimize the influence caused by packaging of goods to the environment and appealed to customers to use recycled products as much as they can. FedEx also encourages customers to use packaging materials efficiently. A considerable amount of energy has been expended in the eco-friendly programs of FedEx. Although thousands of FedEx vehicles and aircraft operate daily with using large amounts of electricity and fuel, FedEx focuses on energy savings and global environment protection.
