Did you know that tyres, traffic jams, weather, speed, traffic conditions, and driving styles all have an impact on your fuel consumption? Point S can help you understand how.
Tyres can account for up to 20% of a vehicle’s fuel consumption.
You need to choose tyres carefully to optimise your fuel consumption: tyre size, tyre pressure, and tyre wear are elements that you must take into account before buying tyres.
A wider tyre improves handling but increases rolling resistance. Low rolling resistance positively affects energy efficiency and it is then important to reduce fuel consumption by not going too wide on your tyres.
Maintaining your tyres?
Tyre pressure is crucial since low tyre pressure increases rolling resistance and impacts wet grip performance. Be sure to inflate your tyres properly.
Ask your nearest Point S centre for more information.
Your local Point S expert can help and advise you on the best tyres for your vehicle or can simply check your tyre pressure if you are not sure you are doing it right.
Other factors can affect your fuel consumption such as driving speed, climate, the amount of air drag on your vehicle, traffic conditions and your engine type. We offer you some top tips to optimise your fuel consumption.
Regular checks can help use your fuel wisely. Choose your tyres carefully, change your driving habits and you will see your fuel spend decrease. In reducing your fuel spend you will also reduce your emissions and that is good for our environment !
