1. Risk rating
-3, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3.
2. Risk factor
Risky, neutral, safe
3. make
alfa-romero, audi, bmw, chevrolet, dodge, honda, isuzu, jaguar, mazda, mercedes-benz, mercury, mitsubishi, nissan, peugot, plymouth, porsche, renault, saab, subaru, toyota, volkswagen, volvo
4. fuel-type
diesel, gas.
5. aspiration
standard, turbo.
6. num-of-doors
four, two.
7. body-style
hardtop, wagon, sedan, hatchback, convertible.
8. drive-wheels
4wheel drive (4wd), forward wheel drive (fwd), rear wheel drive (rwd).
9. engine-location
front, rear.
10. wheel-base
continuous from 86.6 120.9.
11. length
continuous from 141.1 to 208.1.
12. width
continuous from 60.3 to 72.3.
13. height
continuous from 47.8 to 59.8.
14. curb-weight
continuous from 1488 to 4066.
15. engine-type
dohc, dohcv, l, ohc, ohcf, ohcv, rotor.
16. num-of-cylinders
eight, five, four, six, three, twelve, two.
17. engine-size
continuous from 61 to 326.
18. fuel-system
1bbl, 2bbl, 4bbl, idi, mfi, mpfi, spdi, spfi.
19. bore
