Understanding the socio-technical nexus of Nordic electric vehicle (EV) barriers: A qualitative discussion of range, price, charging and knowledge

---

Electric vehicles are perceived as a key alternate to internal combustion engine vehicles for a transition to a
decarbonized society. However, this transition towards the electrification of transport has not made equal
progress globally, and faced several impediments to consumer adoption of EVs across the Nordic region and
beyond. While there has been a multitude of reasons provided in the literature, we aim to characterize the
barriers that remain to electrification today, as well as their perceived interconnections and futures. To provide
insight into this query, the authors conducted 227 semi-structured interviews with transportation and electricity
experts from 201 institutions across seventeen cities in Denmark, Finland, Iceland, Norway, and Sweden. The
qualitative results and consequent cluster analysis show that common barriers like range, price and charging
infrastructure continue to persist, despite technological advancements over the recent years. At the same time,
results also show that barriers are highly interconnected and are commonly connected to consumer knowledge
and experience. The article concludes with a discussion of policy implications of the findings and potential future
research.
