The symmetric ribbed tread design decreases the model's rolling resistance by maintaining an optimal road surface contact. The better road contact allows the tire to decrease the rolling resistance, which in turn lowers the vehicle's fuel consumption and CO2 emissions. The rolling resistance is the driving pressure affecting the model which determines the amount of energy needed to maintain the vehicle in motion. In this manner, the reduced rolling resistance manages to decrease the fuel consumption significantly, offering a fuel efficient and environmentally friendly performance.
