Low Rolling Resistance Tire Market Size, Share & Industry Analysis, By Application Type (On-Road, Off-Road), By Vehicle Type (PC, LCV, HCV) Others and Regional Forecast, 2024-2032

A low rolling resistance reduces the energy loss by tire owing to rolling. Graphene material is used in tires to minimize the rolling effect of the tire, and this will help to lower the fuel consumption. An advanced design of the low rolling resistance tires guarantees better traction for the vehicles to drive safely on wet or dry roads. The design on the outer side of the tire ensures better traction. Lowering the rolling effect of the tire leads to an increase in fuel efficiency by 5% to 10% of the vehicle. The conventional tires have a deeper tread pattern that is designed for a safe driving experience on rough terrains, while low rolling resistance tires are considered more suitable for flat and smooth highways. Drivers can enjoy a safe drive regardless of high-speed parameters.

The increasing demand for fuel-efficient vehicles is also expected to drive the low rolling resistance tire market over the forecast period. The government regulations regarding the tires to lower the carbon product is likely to boost the demand for the low rolling resistance tires. The rising production and sales of passenger and light commercial vehicles globally are also anticipated to propel the automotive low rolling resistance tire market. All these factors are expected to help to drive the growth of the automotive low rolling resistance tire market.       

The high cost of the low rolling resistance tires compared to the standard tires is expected to hamper the growth of the low rolling resistance tire market during the forecast period.
