Technological frames of car engines

Author

Abstract

In this paper we analyze how car users frame car engines. Car engines have been build on internal combustion (IC) technologies for more than hundred years now; however, in the last decade hybrid-electric engines have been successfully introduced. The coexistence of conventional and unconventional technologies raises the interesting question to what extent these different engine technologies are framed differently, and how they change over time. Studies of technological frames and mental models suggest that frames of established technologies are more obdurate.
