dc.description.abstractThis study examined the relationship between two economic indicators—the unemployment rate and the price of gasoline—and the fuel economy of purchased new vehicles. A regression analysis was performed on U.S. monthly data from October 2007 through February 2011. The main finding is that the fuel economy of purchased new vehicles can be well predicted from the unemployment rate and the price of gasoline.en_US
