Abstract
This study examines the social factors influencing the acceptance of autonomous buses, with a focus on perceived benefits, safety, and comfort. It also explores whether these factors differ among residents of cities with varying sizes and urban mobility solutions. A survey was conducted in three Polish cities, collecting data from 1,160 respondents. Structural Equation Modelling (SEM) was used to analyse relationships between perceived benefits, safety, comfort, and future intentions to use autonomous buses. Results indicate that safety and comfort positively influence future intentions to use autonomous buses. However, the effect of perceived benefits varies across cities, suggesting that urban mobility conditions shape public acceptance. The study focuses on Polish cities, which may limit generalizability. Future research should examine other geographical contexts. Findings provide insights for policymakers and manufacturers on enhancing public trust and promoting autonomous bus adoption. Improving public awareness and addressing safety concerns may increase societal acceptance of autonomous mobility. The study uniquely assesses how city characteristics influence social acceptance of autonomous buses.
