A data set on Yugo sales against two competing models in the United States from 1985 to 1992.
Format
A data frame with 24 observations on the following 3 variables.
year
the year
car
the car type, either the Hyundai Excel, Yugo, or Toyota Tercel
sales
the number of units sold in the United States
Details
Data come from a website then known as carsalesbase.com
. I'm
aware the inclusion of the Tercel is questionable since the third generation
of Tercels were quite different from the first and second generations.
However, I use these data to illustrate how poorly the Yugo fared against
competing models, including the first and second generation Tercels. I think
the inclusion is fair for that purpose.
