Abstract

Through the integration of two authoritative data resources and the construction of auto-user related big data, this study employes hierarchical cluster method to analyze Tianjin’s vehicles buyers from 2014 to 2022. The present study centered on family-associated labels and addressed challenges due to data asynchrony and collection anomalies by data preprocessing techniques and feature engineering. As a result, users are categorized into nine distinct groups, including five majority groups and four minority groups. The study finds that different groups are significantly different in car-purchasing behavior. Factors such as family structure and economic status affect car purchase decisions. This research offers a novel user research classification approach for the Chinese automotive market. This study also provides theoretical support and practical guidance for automotive enterprises based on big data user segmentation.
