TLDR
In this paper, the authors identify potential socio-technical barriers to consumer adoption of EVs and determine if sustainability issues influence consumer decision to purchase an EV, and provide valuable insights into preferences and perceptions of technology enthusiasts; individuals highly connected to technology development and better equipped to sort out the many differences between EVs and CVs.About:

Nanotube-structured Na 2 V 3 O 7 as a Cathode Material for Sodium-Ion Batteries with High-rate and Stable Cycle Performances
Naoto Tanibata,Yuki Kondo,Shohei Yamada,Masaki Maeda,Hayami Takeda,Hayami Takeda,Masanobu Nakayama,Toru Asaka,Ayuko Kitajou,Shigeto Okada,Shigeto Okada +10 more
TL;DR: Nanotube-type Na2V3O7 is proposed as a cathode material because of its fast sodium diffusivity, an important requirement for sodium ion batteries, through the investigation of ~4300 candidates via a high-throughput computation.

Barriers Towards Widespread Adoption of V2G Technology in Smart Grid Environment: From Laboratories to Commercialization
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors consider the social barriers to the wider use of plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs) and the implementation of a V2G transition and provide a broader assessment situating such technical barriers alongside more subtle impediments relating to social and cultural values, business practices and political interests.

The theory of planned behavior
TL;DR: Ajzen, 1985, 1987, this article reviewed the theory of planned behavior and some unresolved issues and concluded that the theory is well supported by empirical evidence and that intention to perform behaviors of different kinds can be predicted with high accuracy from attitudes toward the behavior, subjective norms, and perceived behavioral control; and these intentions, together with perceptions of behavioral control, account for considerable variance in actual behavior.

Car use: lust and must. Instrumental, symbolic and affective motives for car use
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors report results of two questionnaire studies aimed at examining various motives for car use, and investigate individual differences in the relative importance of the three categories of motives were investigated.

Giving Green to Get Green: Incentives and Consumer Adoption of Hybrid Vehicle Technology
TL;DR: In this paper, the relative efficacy of state sales tax waivers, income tax credits and non-tax incentives for hybrid-electric vehicle adoption in the United States has been studied and shown that the type of tax incentive offered is as important as the value of the tax incentive.

Beyond batteries: an examination of the benefits and barriers to plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs) and a vehicle-to-grid (V2G) transition
TL;DR: In this article, the authors explore both the promise and the possible pitfalls of the plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEV) and vehicle-to-grid (V2G) concept, focusing first on its definition and then on its technical state-of-the-art.

Electric vehicles: How much range is required for a day’s driving?
TL;DR: In this article, a full year of high-resolution driving data from 484 instrumented gasoline vehicles in the US is used to analyze daily driving patterns, and from those infer the range requirements of electric vehicles (EVs).
