| Abstract | The analysis in this study is directed at examining the effect of fuel prices, the level of economic activity, and vehicle stocks on the quantity of fuel demand in the road transportation sector in Thailand, using a linear logarithm model. The results show that both premium and regular gasoline demand are price elastic and highly substituted by each other. High speed diesel demand is shown to be less price elastic than gasoline but more elastic to the level of economic activity, LPG demand is affected by the high speed diesel price rather than the gasoline price. |
