GUIDE TO EU TYRE LABELLING
In 2021, the EU tyre label has changed to help consumers to become better informed when buying new tyres.
Fuel efficiency is important to reduce both CO2 emissions and the cost of driving. Each tyre can be categorised for its fuel efficiency.
Tyres are rated between A – E; A being the most fuel efficient, E bring the least fuel efficient.
The difference between each category means a reduction or increase in fuel consumption of 3-4%.
Wet grip is a critical safety feature, relating to how quickly a tyre can stop on wet roads.
Tyres are rated A – E; A being the shortest braking distances in the wet, E being the longest braking distance in the wet.
The difference in each category can mean an extra one to two car lengths (3-6 metres) on the stopping distance.
This relates to the external noise made by the tyre and is measured in dB (decibels). There are three ratings for noise: 'A', 'B' and 'C'. 'A' produces the least external noise levels, whilst 'C' produces the highest
