The Automotive & Transportation Group at Frost & Sullivan (www.transportation.frost.com) is pleased to announce that it will be hosting an online analyst briefing presentation on Tuesday, 6 October, 2009 at 2:00pm BST. This briefing will profile potential EV adopters, examine their infrastructure requirements and interpret how consumers respond to new business models.

This briefing will benefit vehicle manufacturers, suppliers, governments, utility and infrastructure companies and anyone interested in understanding the customer potential for EVs in Europe.

“The Frankfurt Motor Show in September 2009 showed real evidence that the automotive industry has made firm commitments towards EVs, however consumers see major barriers to adoption with factors such as infrastructure and range. By understanding the voice of the consumer, the automotive industry can ensure that they are in prime position to take full advantage of this exciting new market,” observes Industry Manager Catherine Butterworth.
