Abstract：In the current study, two experiments were adopted to investigate the effect of empathy on the acceptance of autonomous vehicles with different moral behavioral orientations. The results are as follows: (1) Low empaths did not care about the moral orientation of autonomous vehicles (utilitarian/deontology) when self-interest was not involved but was more inclined to purchase self-protective cars when saving more lives mean self-sacrifice. (2) When self-interest is not involved, high empaths individuals are more willing to purchase pro-social utilitarian autonomous vehicles, but can also accept autonomous vehicles to save themself, with comparable purchase intentions for pro-social utilitarian and self-protective autonomous vehicles. The results of the study provide some implications for resolving the social acceptance dilemma of autonomous vehicles.
