description The results of a research to study the fuel efficiency effect in acquiring a new vehicle are presented. The methodology is based on applying a stated preference survey in the context of a choice experiment with two unlabeled alternatives, which are characterized by the car cost and fuel efficiency.Based on the data collected, a Multinomial Logit model was estimated, which allowed to study different choice scenarios. On average, it was found that individuals are willing to pay up to 1.020.000 Colombian pesos by a new vehicle which improves fuel efficiency at 1 kilometer/gallon. This value may be useful as reference for the automotive industry in the effort to produce higher performance vehicles.

El artículo presenta los resultados de una investigación que se realizó con el propósito de estudiar el efecto del rendimiento del combustible en la adquisición de un vehículo nuevo. La metodología se basó en una encuesta de preferencias declaradas, en el contexto de un experimento de elección de dos alternativas no etiquetadas que se caracterizan por el costo del auto y el rendimiento del combustible. Con los datos acopiados se estimó un modelo Logit Multinomial, que permitió estudiar diferentes escenarios de elección. Se encontró que, en promedio, los individuos están dispuestos a pagar $1.020.000 por mejorar en 1 km/galón el rendimiento del combustible, este valor puede servir de referencia a la industria automotriz en el esfuerzo por producir vehículos de mayor rendimiento.
