Horsepowera numeric vector, engine horsepower
FuelEfficiencya numeric vector, average miles per gallon
TopSpeeda numeric vector, miles per hour
Weighta numeric vector, in units of 100 lbs
Details
Although this is a popular dataset, there is some question as to the units of the fuel efficiency. The source claims it to be in miles per gallon, but the numbers reported seem unrealistic. However, the units do not appear to be in km/gallon or km/L.
