Identifies key stylistic dimensions in electric scooters, linking aesthetics to sustainability in design.

This research aims to analyze evolution trends in electric two-wheeled vehicle styling with a focus on sustainability and user perceptions.
Constructed a framework for analyzing style trends with sustainability as a key dimension.
Conducted a literature review and designer interviews to build a database of 120 stylistic descriptors.
Applied a two-round Delphi method with 10 experts to narrow down descriptors to 40 representative adjectives.
Conducted factor analysis on questionnaire data to identify four core stylistic imagery dimensions.
Identified core stylistic dimensions: simplicity, technological feel, approachability, and lightness, explaining 73.6% of variance.
V09 (Niubility SQi 2025) excelled in technological feel with a score of 2.25, while V05 (Ninebot Mz MIX) scored highest in simplicity (2.17).
High sustainability potential correlated with higher scores in simplicity and approachability, emphasizing integrated forms and restrained decoration.

Chen et al. (2026) studied this question.
