Abstract :
This study aims to examine the effect of financial incentive policy and convenience policy on the intention of citizens in Jakarta to adopt electric vehicles with attitudes towards electric vehicles as a mediating variable. Using the Theory of Planned Behavior framework, this study evaluates the direct and indirect relationships between government policy and citizens' attitude toward adopting sustainable technology. Data were collected through an online survey with a sample of 100 respondents selected using probability sampling techniques. Data were analyzed using the Partial Least Squares-Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) method. The results showed that financial incentive policy significantly influenced attitudes (t = 4.511, p = 0.000) and EV adoption intentions (t = 3.544, p = 0.000), both directly and through the mediation of attitudes towards EVs (t = 2.614, p = 0.005). Convenience policy also has a significant effect on attitude (t = 3.566, p = 0.000) and intention to adopt EVs (t = 3.040, p = 0.001), both directly and through the mediation of attitude toward EVs (t = 3.320, p = 0.000). In addition, a positive attitude toward EVs is proven to significantly influence citizens' intention to adopt electric vehicles (t = 4.436, p = 0.000). The conclusion of this study confirms that financial incentive and convenience policy play an essential role in encouraging the adoption of electric vehicles, both directly and through the mediation of attitude toward electric vehicles. Practical implications of this study include recommendations for the government to expand financial incentives and improve electric vehicle facilities and infrastructure to accelerate the transition to more environmentally friendly transportation in Jakarta.
