About
A relevant analysis of 400 classic car models, focusing on eight key performance and engine characteristics. It is designed for automobile enthusiasts seeking an adrenaline rush and deeper insights into vehicle mechanics and speed. The data offers foundational knowledge for those looking to run wild with performance metrics, positioning itself as an essential tool for exploratory data analysis across a variety of classic vehicle parameters.
Columns
- Car: The specific name identifying the vehicle model. There are 388 unique values recorded.
- MPG: Measures the mileage, calculated as miles per gallon.
- Cylinders: Indicates the number of cylinders, a crucial component of the engine.
- Displacement: Represents the overall volume of air displaced by the car engine.
- Horsepower: The measure of the car’s power output. Note: There are 14 missing values within this field.
- Weight: The mass of the car.
- Acceleration: The rate at which the car increases speed.
- Model: The model number designation.
- Origin: The country where the car originated. Note: This field is entirely missing (100% missing values) across all records.
Distribution
The data pertains to approximately 400 unique classic car models, totalling 406 records, stored in a CSV file format. The file size is 22.2 kB and contains 9 distinct columns. This resource is static and is not expected to receive further updates.
Usage
This data product is ideal for several analytical applications, including:
- Exploratory Data Analysis (EDA) projects focusing on vehicle dynamics.
- Studies related to the Economics of car performance and efficiency.
- Developing and training Artificial Intelligence (AI) models for vehicle attribute prediction or classification.
- Benchmarking performance metrics (e.g., comparing mileage against engine size or weight).
Coverage
The focus is strictly on classic car models. While a field for "Country of Origin" is present, the geographical scope cannot be fully defined as the origin data is currently unavailable (100% missing). The data is historical in nature, reflecting the attributes of these classic models.
