原则上很少有澳大利亚人反对电动汽车，但一项新的交通调查揭示了广泛使用电动汽车的一个关键障碍。 运输与物流研究所（itls）的最新报告显示，三分之三的澳大利亚人正在考虑在未来五年内购买电动汽车，但价格仍是一个关键障碍。 今年3月，对1030名澳大利亚人进行的最新半年一次的交通民意调查显示，4%的人拥有或已经订购了电动汽车，9%的人考虑在未来12个月内购买，另有27%的人正在考虑在未来5年内购买。 但44%的澳大利亚人表示他们买不起电动汽车，其余15%的人表示他们买得起但不感兴趣（注：数字已四舍五入）。 悉尼大学商学院itls主任davidhensher-am教授表示：“这项调查显示，要提高电动汽车的可负担性，并说服超过一半的澳大利亚人相信电动汽车是标准内燃机的替代品，仍然存在挑战。”。 “一旦拥有或打算订购电动汽车的人（根据我们的研究，约占总人口的40%）充分发挥了市场潜力，电动汽车消费量的进一步增长会因为缺乏兴趣或负担能力而停止吗？这是一个可持续未来需要考虑的问题。”。 “每周工作和通勤模式：美国人平均有22%的工作时间在家工作，与2023年9月大致相同。 专业人员、社区工作人员和销售人员增加了工作时间，但管理人员减少了工作时间。 周一和周五是wfh最受欢迎的日子，周一也是混合工作日最受欢迎。 超过三分之二的员工在周二和周三的整个工作日都在办公室。 维多利亚州的工人29%的工作时间在家，而西澳大利亚州的工人只有9%的工作时间。 图片：adobestock越来越多的工人选择在高峰时段以外通勤，最明显的是在周四，当时微弱多数（51%）的人表示在非高峰时段通勤。 这一趋势在首都城市最为明显，对缓解交通拥堵和节省时间产生了积极影响。 “这对交通的影响很重要，因为我们看到非高峰时段通勤人数增加。 亨舍教授说：“高峰和非高峰通勤的良好结合将改善高峰时段的严重拥堵。”。 “我们预计未来大多数首都城市将采用一种混合工作模式，支持每周在家工作一到两天。 “全球紧张局势引发新的担忧”调查还显示，在过去六个月里，澳大利亚人越来越关注法律和秩序、安全以及恐怖主义。 这项历时14年的交通调查包括一个总体问题，即受访者认为澳大利亚的首要问题是什么。 当被要求选择他们的两个最高优先事项时，49%的人选择了住房，41%的人选择就业和经济——这与2023年9月的调查结果相呼应。 在过去五次调查中，选择住房的人数比例急剧上升，目前已趋于平稳。 六分之一的人选择法律和秩序作为他们的首要任务之一，这一担忧已连续第三次受到欢迎。 10%的受访者也将安全和恐怖主义列为首要任务，但远低于2017年的峰值，当时三分之一的受访者认为安全和恐怖主义是首要问题。 从2023年9月起，公众对当地和澳大利亚交通运输的近期和长期措施的信心都有所下降。 然而，信心水平仍高于2023年3月的水平。 亨舍教授表示，交通运输的主要问题是随着人口增长，道路系统的压力越来越大，以及更多的送货上门。 受访者平均每月在线消费413美元，比前两次调查的增长超过了通货膨胀。 “澳大利亚人对道路状况更不满意。 人口的增长和变化给现有的道路系统带来了更大的压力，该系统很难应对严重的拥堵和包括大型卡车在内的车辆数量的增加。 “我们需要考虑多种缓解策略，包括公共交通和积极出行，并通过可行的在家工作和混合工作安排来控制高峰时段的出行需求。 ”。few australians are opposed to electric vehicles in principle - but a new transport survey has revealed one key hurdle to widespread uptake.professor david hensherone in three australians is considering buying an electric vehicle (ev) within the next five years but price remains a key barrier, according to the latest institute of transport and logistics studies (itls) report.conducted in march, the latest biannual transport opinion survey of 1030 australians revealed four percent own or have ordered an ev, nine percent are thinking of buying one in the next 12 months, and a further 27 percent are considering it in the next five years.but 44 percent of australians say they cannot afford an ev, and the remaining 15 percent say they can afford one but are not interested (note: figures have been rounded).“this survey shows there remains a challenge to improving the affordability of evs and convincing more than half of australians they are an alternative to your standard internal combustion engines,” said professor david hensher am, director of itls at the university of sydney business school.“once the markets full potential has been reached for those who own, or intend to order, evs – about 40 percent of the population according to our research – will a further increase in ev uptake halt because of a lack of interest or affordability? it is a question to consider for a sustainable future.”weekly working and commuting patternsaustralians on average work from home (wfh) for 22 percent of their working week – about the same as in september 2023. professionals, community workers and salespeople have increased wfh hours, but managers have reduced them.monday and friday are the most popular days to wfh, and monday is also the most popular for a hybrid working day. more than two-thirds of workers are in the office for the entire working day on tuesday and wednesday.workers in victoria do 29 percent of their working hours from home, while for those in western australia its just nine percent. pictures: adobe stockthere is a growing proportion of workers electing to commute outside of peak hours, most noticeably on thursday, when a slim majority (51 percent) reported commuting during off-peak periods.this trend is most noticeable in the capital cities, and has a positive impact on easing traffic congestion and saving time.“the implications for traffic are important since we see increasing commuting in off-peak periods. a good combination of peak and off-peak commuting will improve heavy congestion during peak hours,“ professor hensher said.“we anticipate a hybrid working model that supports one-to-two days a week working from home for most capital cities in future.”global tensions spark new concernsthe survey also revealed australians have grown more concerned about law and order, security, and terrorism over the past six months.the transport survey, conducted for 14 years, includes a general question on what respondents believe are the priority issues in australia.when asked to select their two highest priorities, 49 percent chose housing and 41 percent chose employment and the economy — echoing results from the september 2023 survey. the proportion of people selecting housing has plateaued after a steep upward trajectory over the past five surveys.one in six chose law and order as one of their top priorities, a concern that has risen in popularity for the third consecutive survey.security and terrorism also emerged as a top priority for 10 percent of respondents, but far below the peak of 2017 when one in three respondents considered it a top concern.public confidence in transport has declined from september 2023 for both near-term and long-term measures for local areas and australia. however, confidence levels are still higher than those in march 2023.professor hensher said the main issues for transport were increasing pressure on the road system with population growth, and more home deliveries. respondents on average reported spending $413 monthly online, an increase from the previous two surveys that outstripped inflation.“australians are more dissatisfied with conditions on the road. population growth and changes have put more pressure on the existing road system, which is hardly coping with severe congestion and increasing numbers of vehicles, including large trucks.“we need to consider multiple mitigation strategies, including public transport and active travel, and controlling travel demand during peak hours through feasible working from home and hybrid work arrangements.”.亲，点击此处在线申请留学咨询服务和报名评估！我们将竭诚提供最佳评估服务！
