Standard classifications
-
Type of customer: In the price index we separate between foreign tourists, private households and private and public enterprises.
Car class: The industry operates with a common standard for car classes. We collect data for the car classes B and C, the two largest classes in the market. Car class B is comparable with the classification CCMN in the international ACRISS-standard. That means it is a car in the compact class (C) with 2 or 4 doors (C), manual transmission (M) and without air condition (N). Car class C is comparable with the classifications CDMR and CDMN. These classifications indicate that it is a car in the compact class (C, but larger than car class B), with 4 doors (D), manual transmission (M) and with (R) or without (N) air condition. An example of car class B: Ford Fiesta, car class C: Ford Focus.
The statistics is published with Producer price indices for services.
