Consumption increment by low pressure in tires

Did you know an adequate pressure in your tires could increment in 3% your autonomy?

Or what is equivalent, reduce CO2 emissions by a 3%

This is an easy step for everyone but an important point for fighting against climate change

By ensuring your pressure is the adequate one or higher than it, you will stop additional and innecesary consumption. It's not a important saving itself but if you take in account what you need to ensure it, it takes more importance

We soon will put for your check a calculator to realize what can you achieve by ensuring adequate pressure

Take into account that if 50MM of vehicles haven't adequate pressure daily worldwide no more no less than

stupid consumption = 50.000.000 * 40km * 130 grs CO2/km * 0,02 = 5200 Tm of CO2 emited daily because an stupid cause

This is equivalent to a 1.000.000 of cars running 40 km daily if those cars would emit 130 grs CO2/km

Added to this we will develop new articles in order to realize how little gestures and attitudes can save millions of Tons of CO2

Additional effects caused by low pressure

Shorter tires life

Low pressure in tires increments area in contact with floor , what makes more drag tire-floor and so more wear.

Worse in-road behaviour

Lack of pressure makes your tires weaker in curves. It's the equivalent to mount a higher profile because the more lateral displacement under a force

Aditionally electronic devices as ABS or ESC are designed to work within a range of pressures. To be out of it, makes unsafer your car

Easier aquaplaning

Low pressure in tires makes increment area in contact with floor. The greater area in contact with floor the difficultier water evacuation under the tires because the greater path of evacuation.

PUT YOUR GRAIN OF SAND IN CO2 REDUCTION. START BY INFLATING YOUR TIRES FREQUENTLY AND DON'T DRIVE WITH A LOW PRESSURE IN THEM
