AbstractUntil now, research on the breakthrough of mass motorization has neglected the importance of the used car market. Empirical evidence proves that the used car market had a significant impact on the growth of car ownership and the purchase of cars among white and blue-collar workers. The transparency and flexibility of the used car market, the lack of price regulation and the degressive curve of used car prices facilitated car ownership among medium income Germans as early as the late 1950s. German car manufacturers recognized the potential of the used car market for the promotion of new car sales, but adopted different market strategies. US companies like Opel and Ford changed their models frequently to promote the sale of new cars and to accelerate the obsolescence of older models, whereas Volkswagen followed the strategy of incremental changes in order to create a higher value for used cars and to generate an additional benefit for new car customers.

Gravel-filled arrester beds, also called safety-escape ramps or vehicle run-out areas, have long been a road-safety feature for safely stopping heavy road vehicles from running off the road. In the recent past, there has been consideration given to installing these features on highway access ramps to provide safe areas to stop passenger cars driving at highway speeds. The work presented in this article was performed to investigate the behaviour of standard-size passenger cars on gravel-filled arrester beds, with a particular focus on the achievable vehicle decelerations and the ability of the arrester beds to safely stop a passenger car coasting in an uncontrolled manner. The findings show that the achievable average decelerations are in the range of 0.3 g for coasting vehicles and up to 0.9 g when the vehicles are braking. The results prove that more research is required to quantify the influence of the gravel parameters on the achievable decelerations.

Cars are an important asset and their importance has increased exponentially in our life. With the increase in the demand and growing needs, the production of cars has also increased. But due to inflation in the prices of new cars, there are people who still can only afford a used car due to their financial conditions. This whole process has given rise to the used car market, which is outperforming many other industries and is rising every day. The rising market for the used car has also resulted in a great increment in sales of Used Cars. Used Car Sales are on a global increase. But, determining the appropriate listing price of a used car is a challenging task, due to the many factors that drive prices of a used vehicle in the market. And that is why there is an urgent need for a system which can accurately predict the price of a used car. considering all the factors that affect the price of a used car.

The number of car sales in e-commerce is currently increase along with the increasing use of the Internet in Indonesia. Purchases of Car in Indonesia are currently get higher, especially in used cars, which are a necessity for the community based on the odd-even system of car traffic policies currently applied in Jakarta. This research aims to study characteristics of clusters formed in e-commerce site to predict how are the car sales segmentation. Data is collected from big-two e-commerce site about car selling and buying in Indonesia. Clustering model is build using K-Means method and Davies Bouldin Index as evaluation of the clusters formed. The results show for both clusters, the first cluster has characteristic lowers sale price and older production year. The second cluster has higher price with latest production. From the model performance, evaluation from Davies Bouldin Index  is quite good for both models. Keywords : Big Data, Clustering, K-Means, E-Commerce
