From the efficiency characteristics of the engines, an evaluation was made of the reduction in fuel consumption, in both straight running and cornering, with low rolling resistance tyres. The influence of these tyres on the vehicle performance was calculated and the optimisation of the fuel consumption/performance ratio was considered.
