Butadiene and Combustion road vehicles

Their prices have moved together.

Butadiene (chemical) and Combustion road vehicles (energy): 1 relationship.

How they are linked

1. Price link: demand driver

Cost and price · Weak · Both ways

Vehicle output and tyre replacement drive most butadiene use. Yet the vehicle price proxy barely moves with the petrochemical proxy, -0.06 monthly, because car prices are set by model cycles and competition, not by monthly input costs.

• -0.06 monthly change correlation
• -0.08 12-month change correlation
• -0.84 fitted elasticity
