Abstract

The system of city transportation and city typology in Central Java affects the fluctuation of fuel consumption. The population size, number of private motor vehicles, RGDP (Regional Gross Domesic Product), number of motorcycles and road length have high correlation with fuel consumption. The higher the population size, the number of private motor vehicles, the number of public passenger vehicles, RGDP, the number of motorcycles and the road length are, the higher the fuel consumption in the city will be. The higher the number of public bus/ the number of public vehicles is, the lower the fuel consumption in the city will be. The population size has low correlation with fuel consumption/capita. Higher population size does not always reduce fuel consumption/capita.
