“…The results also highlight a variance in the behaviour of generational cohorts across different countries. The literature review states that the younger generations in the USA and United Kingdom, developed countries, generally have no appetite to own vehicles (Wang & Wang, 2021). The reality in South Africa is different because most respondents were generations Y and Z, these are the people seeking to purchase (and/or finance) vehicles even during the pandemic.…”

“…This application of quantile regression models also complements the recent stream of the nonlinearity of land use-travel research. Tree-based machine learning algorithms have been commonly used to identify nonlinear and threshold effects of the built environment (e.g., Cheng et al, 20020a;Ding et al, 2018;Wang and Ozbilen, 2020;Wang and Wang, 2021). These methods can offer detailed information on the effective ranges of variables of interest, thereby supporting specific policy priorities.…”
