Description

A consumer survey completed in 2014 by Frost & Sullivan has revealed that 70% of consumers rate secure feel as the most important aspect when talking about a better driving experience. The survey interviewed more than 1,800 drivers of different car segments across France, Germany, the United Kingdom, and Russia. The survey results present consumers’ driving behaviours as well as their attitudes and acceptance of different driving dynamics technologies such as steering, suspension, tyres, brakes and safety, and driveline systems. Additionally, the survey covers general attitudes about vehicle features such as exterior and interior design, price, ride quality, reliability, and safety.
