SUV Registrations Up 56 Percent in Nebraska |
|||
| Sport utility vehicle (SUV) registrations
in Nebraska increased 56 percent between 1997 and 2002, the U.S. Census
Bureau reported today. SUV registrations jumped from 99,000 in 1997 to 154,000
in 2002.
The 2002 Vehicle Inventory and Use Survey (VIUS) report for Nebraska includes information on fuel efficiency, annual mileage, primary range of operation, permanent equipment and other physical and operational characteristics. Data are for pickup trucks, SUVs, minivans, all other single-unit trucks and truck-tractors. State reports are being released on a flow basis. A U.S. summary report will be issued later this year. Estimates in this report are based on
data from the 2002 VIUS. They contain sampling and nonsampling errors.
To keep the identity of an individual respondent confidential, some estimates
may be suppressed. Users who make their own estimates based on survey
estimates should cite the U.S. Census Bureau as the source of the original
estimates only. See <http://www.census.gov/svsd/www/02vehinv.html>
for measures of sampling variability and other survey information. -X- |
