Importance of TPMS
Proper tire pressure maintenance positively impacts
safety, as well as reduces CO2 emissions, fuel
consumption and tire wear.
Studies estimate that more than 70% of vehicles
have at least one significantly underinflated tire;
proper tire inflation can save up to 2% in fuel
consumption and reduce CO2 emissions.
Based on this metric and using Europe as an
example: 2% reduced fuel consumption for 150
million cars (75% of 200 million) means:
21 million liters of fuel or 52.5 million kg
CO2 saved per 100 km
2.52 billion liters of fuel or 6.3 billion kg (63
million tons) CO2 saved per year
Significant cost and environmental savings through
reduced tire wear.
