Fuel efficiency and motor vehicle travel: the declining rebound effect

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors proposed an empirical specification for motor vehicles based on a simple aggregate model that simultaneously determines vehicle-miles traveled (VMT), vehicles, and fuel efficiency.

Automobile Externalities and Policies

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors discuss the nature and magnitude of externalities associated with automobile use, including local and global pollution, oil dependence, traffic congestion and traffic accidents, and discuss current federal policies affecting these externalities, including fuel taxes, fuel-economy and emissions standards, and alternative fuel policies.

Concepts of price elasticities of transport demand and recent empirical estimates: an interpretative survey. in: urban transport

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present two companion papers which survey price elasticities of transport demand, including theoretical and empirical issues in estimating transport demand elasticities. But the origins of motivations of these two papers were different.

A review of new demand elasticities with special reference to short and long run effects of price changes

TL;DR: The use of the price mechanism is particularly important because of its contribution to generating funds for public or private expenditure, and helping markets to operate more efficiently by ensuring that the external costs of pollution and congestion are met by those who cause them.

Gasoline demand revisited: an international meta-analysis of elasticities

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used meta-analysis to determine if there are factors that systematically affect price and income elasticity estimates in studies of gasoline demand, and four econometric models were estimated, using long-run and short-run prices and income estimates from previous studies as the dependent variables.

A dynamic empirical analysis of household vehicle ownership and utilization

TL;DR: In this article, the authors developed a dynamic model of household vehicle ownership and utilization behavior by using data that were generated before, during, and after the 1979 energy crisis, and found that households have maintained a distinct preference for American over foreign cars, but also have strong brand loyalties.
