Two survey approaches were employed, includes a nationwide online survey and an offline survey. The offline survey has been conducted at five major municipalities - Hanoi, Hai Phong, Da Nang, Ho Chi Minh City, and Can Tho and three provinces implementing pilot activities to promote the use of EVs: Quang Ninh, Thua Thien Hue, and Phu Yen. In total, 1,427 survey responses were collected, of which 1,283 were deemed valid and 144 were invalid. Among the 1,283 valid responses, 785 consumers (55 percent) reported having previous experience using EVs.
