What is a green tire?

Green tires are radial tires that have low rolling resistance and low fuel consumption due to the application of new materials and designs. In a car, energy is consumed by various resistances, of which about 20% of the gasoline is consumed by the rolling resistance of the tire. The use of green tires can reduce energy consumption in this area, thus achieving fuel-saving purposes. The market price of this type of tire is around 450 yuan.

Tire is one of the important wear parts of automobiles. From the development trend of energy saving and emission reduction in the automotive industry, the tire itself is a kind of pollution source. First, 20% of the fuel of the car is consumed to offset the rolling resistance of the tire. The truck can even More than 30%. Second, the rapid consumption and wear of tires is the number one enemy of efficient rubber utilization. In addition, the recycling of used tires will greatly increase carbon emissions. According to the International Energy Agency, the current global car ownership is 830 million, and its carbon dioxide emissions account for 18% of global carbon dioxide emissions. The World Business Council for Sustainable Development predicts that by 2030, carbon dioxide emissions from vehicles will double.
