Tire air pressure affects automotive fuel economy because:
Rolling Resistance: Well-inflated tires demand less energy to move. This minimizes engine workload and boosts fuel efficiency. However, underinflated tires increase rolling resistance, making the engine work harder and using more petrololine.
Tires filled to the manufacturer's recommended pressure provide best performance and fuel efficiency. Any tire pressure below or above this suggested range can reduce fuel efficiency.
Uneven tire wear increases rolling resistance and fuel consumption. Regularly checking and maintaining tire pressure helps save tire wear and fuel use.
Properly inflated tires improve handling and stability, especially when cornering and braking. Smoother driving reduces rapid acceleration and braking, improving fuel efficiency.
Environmental Impact: Proper tire pressure improves fuel efficiency, lowers tire wear, and extends tire life. This reduces the environmental impact of tire disposal and manufacture, improving sustainability.
Fuel efficiency, vehicle performance, and safety depend on optimum tire air pressure. Regularly checking and adjusting tire pressure according to manufacturer guidelines saves fuel and reduces environmental impact.
