英文摘要	Compared to gasoline vehicles, electric vehicles have an advantage that financial benefits from reduced energy consumption offset much or all of the initial price premium. However, currently there exists consumer misconception of this advantage. One strategy to address this misconception is to provide life cycle cost information to consumers. This study investigates how providing information about 5-year fuel cost and total cost of ownership affects the stated preferences of 'below 40' young consumers for a gasoline, plug-in hybrid, or battery electric vehicle in the context of China. A rank-ordered logit model is developed to model consumers' stated preferences, based on data collected through a stated preference experiment. This study evidenced the significant positive effect of providing 5-year fuel cost and total cost of ownership information on the stated preference for electric vehicle. Socioeconomic attributes such as gender and education level are also found to have effects on consumers' electric vehicle purchasing intent. The results enhance the understanding of consumers' complex electric vehicle purchase decisions and have policy implications for electric vehicle promotion.
