Men prefer their cars beefy or fast, while women go for lower price tags and higher miles per gallon, according to a survey released Thursday, Reuters reported.

TrueCar.com, which studied data from 8 million purchases in the United States last year, found BMW AG's Mini had the highest percentage of female buyers at 48%, while 93% of buyers for Fiat's Ferrari were men.

"The study shows that women car buyers are more cost-conscious and purchased fuel-efficient vehicles while male buyers were completely the opposite, purchasing vehicles that were either big and brawny, like a large truck, or chose a high-priced, high-performance vehicle," TrueCar analyst Jesse Toprak said. （點擊路透社網站查看原文）

買車：男看外形女講實用

???????路透社報道，周四發布的一個調查表明，男人希望他們的車結實、速度快，而女人更在乎低價、省油。

???????TrueCar.com對美國去年售出的800萬輛車進行統計研究，發現購買寶馬公司Mini車的女性比例最高，達48%；而菲亞特公司法拉利的購買者93%都是男性。

???????TrueCar分析師杰西·托普拉克說：“這一研究表明女性購車者更有成本意識，喜歡買省油的車；而男性購車者則完全相反，買的車要么很大很結實，像個卡車似的，要么很貴，性能很好。”
