Abstract

The aim of this study was to assess and determine the most suitable electric sports utility vehicle (e-SUV) alternatives for consumers who are considering buying an e-SUV that is sold in Turkey. Accordingly, 10 different vehicles were selected using specific criteria from the e-SUVs available through distributor sales in Turkey. CRITIC and COPRAS methods were used to rank these vehicles. The results of the CRITIC method for determining the weights of the criteria were the following three: fast charging time, energy consumption, and price. The results of the analyses conducted using the COPRAS method and these weights determined the e-SUV rankings. Based on these results, the top three alternatives were Subaru Solterra, New MG ZS EV, and BMW iX3 eDrive20.

Elektrikli SUV Araç Seçiminde Çok Kriterli Karar Verme: Bütünleşik Critic-Copras Yöntemi

Abstract

Çalışmada Türkiye’de satışı olan elektrikli SUV’lardan, satın almayı planlayan tüketiciler için en uygun e-SUV alternatifi belirlenmeye çalışılmıştır. Bu amaçla, Türkiye’de distribütör satışında olan elektrikli SUV ‘lardan 10 farklı araç belirlenmiştir. Belirli kriterler altında seçilen bu 10 farklı aracın sıralamasında Çok Kriterli Karar Verme yöntemlerinden bütünleşik olarak CRITIC ve COPRAS yöntemleri kullanılmıştır. Kriterlerin ağırlıklarının belirlenmesinde CRITIC yöntemiyle yapılan hesaplamalar sonucunda en önemli ilk üç kriter; hızlı şarj süresi, enerji tüketimi ve fiyat kriterleridir. CRITIC yöntemiyle belirlenen ağırlıklar kullanılarak COPRAS yöntemiyle gerçekleştirilen analizler sonucunda e-SUV’lara ilişkin sıralamalar elde edilmiştir. Bu sonuçlara göre ilk üç alternatif Subaru Solterra, New MG ZS EV ve BMW iX3 eDrive20 olarak belirlenmiştir.
