America's "love affair with the automobile" is being transformed - but not broken up - by forces that are redrawing the global gasoline and oil markets, including higher gasoline prices, tightening environmental requirements, changing demographics, competing world oil demand and expanding fuel options, according to the 2007 update of Gasoline and the American People, by Cambridge Energy Research Associates (CERA).
Key issues included in this updated analysis:
* Americans have been driving 41% more than 25 years ago
* Growth in gasoline demand fell in 2005 and continued at a slower rate in 2006
* US motorists pay one of the lowest rates in the world for gasoline--an average of $2.86 a gallon in the third quarter of 2006. The British pay the most, at $6.50 per gallon.
* New purchases of light trucks, SUVs and minivans declined in 2005 and 2006 for the first time since 1990
* Nearly 4% of the total gasoline market by volume is now ethanol.
* Imports comprise 12% of the total gasoline consumed in the US
Available in bound paperback, this updated CERA Report is authored by CERA Chairman Daniel Yergin and others, and offers a unique view of the current gasoline market.
