An extended model of the theory of planned behaviour to predict purchase intention for local brand vehicles produced in Malaysia

The single-digit growth rate of the Malaysian Automotive sector has experienced a slight decline elicited by Covid-19 and a change in consumers product evaluation criteria. This necessitates an inclusive business model that encompasses consumers interests and organisational goals through the extensi...
