1) Electric cars address basic consumer needs like environmental consciousness and cost savings. Drivers include a growing middle class, scarce oil, and improved electric car technology and infrastructure.
2) Emerging expectations include cheaper fuel costs and awareness of electric cars' environmental benefits. Renault-Nissan has successfully applied the trend.
3) Opportunities include assessing the trend's fit with current offerings and identifying customer groups like cost-conscious families.

Head of Entrepreneurship Education Malaysian Academy of SME & Entrepreneurship Development (MASMED) SWOT ANALYSIS SWOT ANALYSIS CONSUMER TREND CANVAS (CTC) An easy-to-follow framework that will help you not only unpack and understand any consumer trend, but also help you apply it to launch successful consumer-facing innovations of your own. Consumer trends are an essential part of uncovering innovation opportunities. Distinguishes between the “Analyze” and the “Apply” stages. During the Analyze stage, you assess a trend and its underlying drivers. What are the basic consumer needs a trend is serving and why? What kinds of change is this trend driving and why? During the Apply stage you’ll look at ways in which you and your business can best tap into a trend, and who would benefit from this trend. How and when to use the canvas 1. Start with the left hand side 'Analyze‘ Help you unpack and understand the trend.
2. Then turn to the right hand side 'Apply‘
Identifying what opportunities this trend can present for your business.
FINALLY CAPTURE YOUR NEW INNOVATION
IDEAS! 1. ANALYZE A. BASIC NEEDS B. DRIVERS OF CHANGE C. EMERGING CUSTOMER EXPECTATIONS D. INSPIRATION A. Basic Needs What deep consumer needs & desires does this trend address? Identifying these underlying needs is central to understanding any consumer trend. Eg: Social status / Self-improvement / Entertainment / Excitement / Connection / Security / Identity / Relevance / Social interaction / Creativity / Fairness / Honesty / Freedom / Recognition / Simplicity / Transparenc B. Drivers of Change Why is this trend emerging now? What’s changing? Long-term, macro changes (across years or even decades –eg: urban transition, ageing world and climate challenge). Triggers (more immediate changes – eg: specific technologies, political events, economic shocks, environmental incidents, and more C. Emerging Consumer Expectations What new consumer needs, wants and expectations are created by the changes identified above? Where and how does this trend satisfy them? emerge when basic human needs bump up against external change to create (or unlock) new needs, wants and desires. And identifying these unmet needs and wants is the holy grail of understanding trends, as it will present you with compelling innovation opportunities. Look for expectation gaps between what consumers want, and what they currently have. D. Inspiration How are other businesses applying this trend? Seeing what other businesses, entrepreneurs, non-profits, governments even, are already doing with the trend is a great way to better understand it very few ‘innovations’ are totally new. Most (successful) innovation comes from combining seemingly unrelated elements, or taking something and deploying it in a new context. Look at existing business innovations, understand them, then adapt them to your business. 2. APPLY A. INNOVATION POTENTIAL B. WHO A. Innovation Potential How and where could you apply this trend to your business? 4 areas: Vision: How will the deeper shifts underlying this trend shape your company’s long-term vision? Business Model: Can you apply this trend to launch a whole new business venture or brand? Product / Service / Experience: What new products and services could you create in light of this trend? How will you adapt your current products and services? Campaign: How can you incorporate this trend into your campaigns, and show consumers you speak their language, that you ‘get it’. B. WHO Which (new) customer groups could you apply this trend to? What would you have to change? New consumer behaviors usually start with certain (niche) segments, before evolving and spreading throughout the mass market. Electric cars is a good example 1. Analyse trends Basic needs — What deep consumer needs & desires does this trend address? — I haven’t spoken to many electric car owners yet, but the ones that I’ve spoken to mention “environmental consciousness” and “cost saving” as the basic needs that drove their purchase of an electric car. The experts at TrendWatching mention some other typical types of basic of needs worth considering as part of your analysis. Drivers of Change — Why is this trend emerging now? — What’s changing? — To analyse the drivers of change, it’s worth looking at ‘shifts’ and ‘triggers’. Shifts are the long-term, macro changes that often take years or decades to fully materialise. For example, a rapidly growing global middle class and increasing scarcity of oil are significant drivers of the appeal of electric cars. Triggers are the more immediate changes that drive the emergence of a consumer trend. These can include specific technologies, political events, economic shocks and environmental incidents. I feel that recent improvements to both the technology and infrastructure with regard to electric cars are important triggers. Emerging Consumer Expectations — What new consumer needs, wants and expectations are created by the changes identified above? — Where and how does this trend satisfy them? — Purchasing expensive fuel for your car is no longer a given, and consumers starting to become much aware of the cheaper and environmentally friendly alternative in electric cars. Inspiration — How are other businesses applying this trend? — When analysing a trend, a key part of the analysis involves looking at how incumbent businesses are applying a trend. For example, the Renault-Nissan alliance has thus far been the most successful when it comes to electric cars and learning about the ‘why’ behind their success will help one’s own trend analysis. 2. Apply trends Innovation Panel — How and where could you apply this trend to your business? — To me, this is one of the crucial steps when exploring trends; asking yourself that all important question — how can I best apply this trend to my business? For example, how does a specific trend fit in with our current offering of products and services? Why (not)? It’s similar to when you assess a product opportunity and go through a number of questions to look at the viability of a trend for your business (see Fig. 4 below). Who? Which (new) customer groups could you apply this trend to? What would you have to change? — How often do we forget to think properly about who this trend is for and why they benefit from it. Which demographic is this trend relevant for and why? For instance, with electric cars, one could think about middle class families who are very cost and environmentally conscious consumers.
