Global Low Rolling Resistance Tire Market: About this marketSpeak directly to the analyst to clarify any post sales queries you may have.
The low rolling resistance tire market analysis considers sales from both aftermarket and OEMs end-users. Our study also finds the sales of low rolling resistance tire in APAC, Europe, MEA, North America, and South America. In 2019, the aftermarket segment had a significant market share, and this trend is expected to continue over the forecast period. Factors such as rolling resistance of tires will play a significant role in the aftermarket segment to maintain its market position. Also, our global low rolling resistance tire market report looks at factors such as falling rubber prices boosting the profit margins of tire manufacturers, wide-base LRR tires enabling vehicle weight reduction. and stringent regulations to curb emissions. However, cost concerns surrounding LRR tires, ongoing US-China trade war impacting the tire industry, growing popularity of tire retreading may hamper the growth of the low rolling resistance tire industry over the forecast period.
Global Low Rolling Resistance Tire Market: Overview
Vehicle weight reduction offered by wide-base LRR tires
There has been a surge in demand for lightweight vehicles in recent years. Low rolling resistance tire (LRR) manufacturers are increasingly adopting wide-base LRR tires for trucks and buses as they reduce vehicle weight and improve the fuel efficiency of the vehicles. The wide-base configuration allows fleet operators in reducing the weight of vehicles in the range of 800 to 1400 pounds. The reduced weight further allows the fleet operators to put a high payload on vehicles, particularly, in weight-sensitive applications. Thus, the growing awareness of the benefits of deploying wide-base configuration in modern vehicles will lead to the expansion of the global low rolling resistance tire market at a CAGR of over 10% during the forecast period.
Growing popularity of nanotechnology to reduce rolling resistance
Nanotechnology is increasingly being adopted in tire manufacturing as it helps in reducing the wear and tear of the tires. In addition, this technology offers a strong grip to tires on snow-covered pavements so that they can operate in extreme temperatures with superior performance. Furthermore, nanotechnologies like single-walled carbon nanotubes, allow tires to become more durable, maintain their color for longer duration, and improve heat quality. This development is expected to have a positive impact on the overall market growth.
