What are energy saving tyres and are they worth it?


Energy-saving tyres have been developed to reduce the energy required for a vehicle to move. This in turn improves the fuel efficiency of a vehicle. As the engine does not use as much fuel to power the car, it helps to reduce CO2 emissions.

Are energy saving tyres worth it?

Yes, there are plenty of motorists that would agree energy saving tyres can be considered worth the investment.

When ordering new tyres, you may spot that tyres that have been labelled as energy saving can be more expensive. However, there is potential for savings thanks to a reduction in fuel consumption over time. On top of this, CO2 emissions can be significantly cut over the life of the tyre as less fuel is required for a vehicle.

How much difference do fuel efficient tyres make?

The amount of difference fuel efficient tyres make can vary. As a general rule of thumb, one of these tyres can improve the fuel efficiency of a car by around 7%. This can lead to a reduction of CO2 emissions by up to 4 grams per kilometre.
