“…There was no study existing that used structural equation modelling to uncover the inhibitors of the adoption of BEVs in Morocco from the population's perspective. The only case study found related to this specific topic is Chachdi et al's [46]. Although this study explored possible demotivators for the adoption of BEVs in Morocco, it lacked important factors in the study such as the availability of BEV maintenance and the possible lack of knowledge regarding BEVs among the Moroccan population.…”

The transport sector is one of the main contributors to global CO2 emissions and the transport sector in the Kingdom of Morocco is no exception. To combat this, two important agreements aimed at reducing greenhouse gas emissions were created, the Paris Agreement and the Nationally Determined Contributions. The adoption of battery electric vehicles is one way of helping to reduce transport-related emissions. However, there are several barriers to the adoption of battery electric vehicles in Morocco. The objective of this paper is to identify these barriers and to propose solutions to overcome them based on a survey of 209 responses that were analyzed using the Smart-PLS 4 approach. The study found that the financial attributes, maintenance, design, social reinforcement, and lack of incentives related to battery electric vehicles are the most significant factors that could cause the hindrance of the adoption of battery electric vehicles. Therefore, more affordable and attractive battery electric vehicles should be made more accessible. Moreover, increased technical training facilities should be mobilized to boost further efforts and increase experience in the field of BEV maintenance in Morocco. By implementing these solutions, Morocco can increase the uptake of battery electric vehicles and reduce its greenhouse gas emissions. This will help Morocco reach its Nationally Determined Contributions and protect the environment as well as the health of its population.

“…Otherwise, given the impact of transport on the consumption of fossil fuels and greenhouse gas emissions, the implementation of a policy allowing the development of electro mobility in Morocco represented an important fraction of the renewable energy objectives. In this context a socio-economic study of electric vehicles in Morocco was conducted by [90] , it shows the reasons influencing the Moroccan choices of transportation modes, in particular, those taken according to electric vehicles technologies. It also explores potential options for incorporating this green transport style into the Moroccan context, while respecting their preferences and limitations.…”

“…The first distribution of the survey took place during COP22, where we could have a sample of respondents from varying nationalities and socio-professional backgrounds. More details on the survey, including the design of the questionnaire, method of sampling adopted, and analysis of the results are now available in the article "Socio-economic Analysis of Electric Vehicles in Morocco" [9]. Our sample of 425 observations is made up mainly of workers (60.47%) who mostly travel to their offices by car (67.70%) or by bus or taxi (20.62%).…”

In the face of the transition from existing transportation methods to electric vehicles, new economic models are indispensable in order to understand and anticipate the effect of this new sector on the automotive market. This document aims to develop three points related to the prediction of demand for electric vehicles in Morocco as a new technology not yet widespread in the country: conducting the survey, estimating the model, and forecasting. The structure of the model includes several significant variables. In order to study the determinants of future purchase of an electric car (EC), a multivariate logistic regression analysis was carried out by considering as a dependent variable the probability of purchase and as explanatory variables the respondent's socio-demographic characteristics, daily travel mode, and perception of ECs. The choice of the multiple logistic regression method was based on the fact that the dependent variable is a qualitative binomial with two modalities, yes or no. The results show that demand depends significantly on the age of the potential buyers of EC, their daily mileage travelled, as well as the owners of the classic cars that will be the most demanded of this type of vehicle. The findings will also be of interest to decision makers who wish to develop effective measures to stimulate this new sector.
