Exploring cars data with ALTAIR
Looking at cars manufactured between 1970 and 1982, what is the repartition and evolution
of the performance in terms of miles driven for one gallon of oil.
Is there a correlation between the car consumption, the horsepower and country of origin?
The majority of cars in the dataset have a performance less than 30 miles per gallon.
This correspond to car built until the late 1970's.
There is obviously a correlation with the horsepower. The most efficient oil consumption,
the lower the horsepower.
Those better performing cars are build all over the world, but primarily in Japan and Europe.
Having a a closer look at the state of the US car manufacturing industry in the 1980's might
