Applied Economics and Finance Copenhagen Business School JEL: L62 Key words: luxury cars, BMW, Audi, pure characteristics demand models Database can be obtained by contacting the author through the e-mail above 1 Audi vs BMW – On the Physcial Heterogenity of German Luxury Cars Claus Vistesen Abstract This paper uses Logit and Probit regressions to test for and quantify the physical heterogeneity between German luxury cars. Using a matched sample database, the binary response variable consisting of Audis and BMWs is fitted to a matrix of physical characteristics such as power, torque, fuel consumption, engine displacement etc. The results indicate that having a forced induction engine (e.g. turbo) is associated with a 51% lower probability of observing a BMW and that increasing fuel consumption by 1 liter per 100km lowers the probability of observing a BMW with 61%. The results are discussed in relation to the idea that consumers may not differentiate across luxury products on the basis of physical characteristics and how this may introduce a bias with respect to predicting demand in the context of available market data. 1.0 Introduction The idea that you can take some of the most arcane tools of the economist’s toolbox and apply them directly to the unstable and complex reality of the real world remain a difficult aspiration in most contexts.

  • From the Audi R10 TDI Straight Into the A4 DTM
    Ingolstadt, 19 March 2006 Motorsport / 21 days until the start of the 2006 DTM From the Audi R10 TDI straight into the A4 DTM • Le Mans record winner Tom Kristensen swaps in no time at all Spending a lot of time with the family or pursuing hobbies such as cycling and jet skiing at home in Hobro, Denmark, are unlikely propositions for Tom Kristensen AUDI AG this year. In the 2006 season, the 38-year-old Audi factory driver is shouldering as Kommunikation 85045 Ingolstadt many as two racing commitments: In the Audi A4 DTM, he contests Europe’s www.audi.com most popular touring car series which is scheduled to start at Hockenheim on April 9th and, in addition, he is part of Audi’s ambitious diesel project in the 24 Hours of Le Mans. The differences between these two racing disciplines notwithstanding, there is one thing they have in common: Tom Kristensen is considered one of the hot favourites in both. As many as seven times Kristensen has won the world’s most famous endurance race in France, now being the record holder. After his victory in the Audi R10 TDI at Sebring (Florida) this weekend, the new diesel sportscar’s debut, the Dane will be flying on Sunday night directly from Miami to London, where the official DTM tests at Brands Hatch are scheduled to start on Monday. There, Kristensen will be taking the wheel of his new Audi A4 DTM – bearing the internal designation “R12 plus” – for the first time. Yet the record holder has no problem switching from the 650-hp open-air sports prototype to the DTM touring car in which he claimed third place in the Championship last year: “No matter whether I climb into the R10 TDI or the A4 DTM – I always immediately feel that I’m sitting in an Audi.” Tomorrow: Tests in the DTM – every day counts Communication Motorsport Telephone +49 (0)841 89 34200, fax +49 (0)841 89 38617 E-Mail [email protected] Photographs, sound bites and additional information on the Internet: www.audi-motorsport.info (Accreditation necessary) 1/1 .

  • Maro Engel En Toksport WRT Bezorgen Mercedes-AMG Eerste Pole Bij Hankook 24H DUBAI Sinds 2017
    Maro Engel en Toksport WRT bezorgen Mercedes-AMG eerste pole bij Hankook 24H DUBAI sinds 2017 DUBAI (9 januari 2020) – De Duitser Maro Engel, een voormalig winnaar van de FIA GT World Cup, had sinds 2017 niet meer op het Dubai Autodrome geracet, maar dat weerhield hem er geenszins van om de pole-position voor de 15e editie van de Hankook 24H DUBAI van dit weekeinde voor zich op te eisen. Zijn rondetijd van 1:57,490 minuten op het 5,390 kilometer lange Dubai Autodrome was voor Engel genoeg om met de Toksport WRT-Mercedes-AMG GT3 (#777, Maro Engel / Luca Stolz / Philip Ellis / Patrick Assenheimer / Martin Konrad) de pole- position veilig te stellen. Voor Mercedes-AMG was het ook de eerste pole-position bij de Hankook 24H DUBAI sinds 2017. “Deze heb ik echt aan het team te danken, de jongens hebben een ongelooflijke klus geklaard door onze auto na schade in de testdag van gisteren weer te repareren. Ik geloof dat ze tot vier uur vanmorgen bezig geweest zijn, dus het is mooi om iets terug te kunnen geven”, zei Maro Engel na de kwalificatie. “Als altijd speelde het verkeer in de tijdtraining een belangrijke rol, maar ik kon een redelijk fatsoenlijke ronde rijden, die genoeg was voor de pole-position.” De Nederlander Jeroen Bleekemolen reed met de Black Falcon-Mercedes- AMG GT3 (#4, Khaled Al Qubaisi / Hubert Haupt / Ben Barker / Manuel Metzger / Jeroen Bleekemolen) de tweede tijd, slechts 0,047 seconden achter Engel. Daarmee was de volledige eerste startrij in handen van Mercedes- AMG-teams. Porsche-fabrieksrijder Sven Müller reed in de Herberth Motorsport-Porsche 911 GT3 R (#91, Sven Müller / Ralf Bohn / Robert Renauer / Alfred Renauer) de derde tijd.

Norisring. Following Bruno Spengler’s (CAN) victory in Saturday’s race at the Norisring (GER), it was another BMW driver who crossed the finish line in first place at the end of the eighth race of the year on Sunday: after 66 laps, two safety car phases and one red flag, Maxime Martin (BEL) took the chequered flag to claim the 75th success for BMW in the DTM having started from seventh on the grid. Martin backed up third place in Budapest (HUN) and second place on Saturday with his third DTM victory – his first since 2015 at the Nürburgring. For BMW, this was a fitting conclusion to a historic weekend at the Norisring. BMW was victorious in Nuremberg for the first time since 1992 – and, as was also the case back then, in both races. Marco Wittmann (GER), Augusto Farfus (BRA), Tom Blomqvist (GBR) and Timo Glock (GER) finished fifth, seventh, ninth and tenth to complete a fine team result, with five BMW M4 DTMs in the top ten on Sunday. Spengler came home twelfth, having been in contention for a podium finish for long periods of the race. Qualifying: As usual, the grid positions at the narrow street circuit were decided by mere thousandths of a second.

  • Time to Go Racing with the New Aston Martin Vantage GTE
    Time to go racing with the new Aston Martin Vantage GTE • Aston Martin Vantage GTE to make its racing debut at Spa-Francorchamps • Team confident car is competitive and reliable ahead of season • Aston Martin Racing begins historic Super Season with world class driver line-up Tuesday 1 May, Spa-Francorchamps: The new Aston Martin Vantage GTE will make its long- awaited debut in the 2018/19 FIA World Endurance Championship (WEC) Super Season at the Total 6 Hours of Spa-Francorchamps this weekend (3-5 May). The Aston Martin Vantage GTE is based on the critically-acclaimed Aston Martin Vantage road car, the most performance oriented sports car to come from Aston Martin’s ‘Second Century Plan’. Powered by a 4.0-litre, V8 turbo-charged AMG engine developed and optimised by AMR, the Vantage GTE is the first all-new GT car Aston Martin has introduced to the FIA WEC GTE category in seven years. Following an extensive 10-month testing and development programme that has covered 35,000km and 14 different circuits, the team is confident that it has a competitive and reliable car capable of repeating Aston Martin Racing's 2017 Le Mans 24 Hours glory in June and contending for the overall Super Season GTE Pro title. Aston Martin Racing also boasts a world class driving line-up in 2018. The GTE Pro roster includes three-time Le Mans winner Darren Turner, who is joined in the #95 car by 2016 FIA WEC GTE Pro champions Nicki Thiim and Marco Sørensen. Meanwhile, 2017 Le Mans winner Jonny Adam shares the #97 entry with DTM and Spa 24 Hours race-winner Maxime Martin (B) and Formula 1 test driver and Formula E racer Alex Lynn (GB).
