MARKHAM, ON, Aug. 11, 2015 /CNW/ – Hyundai Auto Canada Corp. (HACC) has uncovered a strong appetite among Canadians for hydrogen fuel cell electric and non-gasoline powered vehicles, showing that it is time for a change in the auto industry. The findings were obtained through a two-pronged research study in partnership with Canadian research company Ipsos Reid and Offsetters, North America’s leading carbon management company. Both focused exclusively on the Canadian market.
The consumer insight survey revealed the majority of Canadians (75 per cent) would like to drive a vehicle not powered by gasoline – but they aren’t keen to turn to traditional battery electric vehicles (BEVs), with 71 per cent of those surveyed indicating that constantly having to charge a BEV is a pain and 67 per cent feeling they are too much of a hassle to drive.
This may indicate why 64 per cent demonstrated an appetite to drive a vehicle powered by hydrogen and 77 per cent believe hydrogen fuel cell powered vehicles are the way of the future.
