Small cars, large cars, and the price of gasoline.
Recently, the question of small vs large cars has assumed increasing importance because of their differential fuel economy and impact on energy consumption. This paper estimates disaggregated demand functions for cars by size and age class with particular attention to the effects of gasoline prices...

Haessel, Walter su: Energy consumption Compact cars Automobiles Gas prices sug: subj: Energy consumption Compact cars Automobiles Gas prices ab: Recently, the question of small vs large cars has assumed increasing importance because of their differential fuel economy and impact on energy consumption. This paper estimates disaggregated demand functions for cars by size and age class with particular attention to the effects of gasoline prices on the composition of demand. The data consisted of a cross-section of five-year time series from eight Canadian provinces. Evidence was found of a substantial response of the demand composition to changes in the relative care prices; the evidence on the effect of gas prices was less conclusive. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: Article src: R language: English refInfo: copyright: @attributes: flag: Y dt: @attributes: year: 1978 holdings: @attributes: islocal: N |
