Headway labels against all brands (passenger cars)
1,032 Headway tyres for passenger cars are on sale. Each percentage is the share of those tyres, next to the same share for every brand’s tyres for passenger cars on sale.
| Measure | Headway | All brands |
|---|---|---|
| Class A for wet grip | 1% | 11% |
| Class A for fuel efficiency | 0% | 2% |
| Wet grip at least as good as 75% of same-size rivals | 56% | 52% |
| Fuel efficiency at least as good as 75% of same-size rivals | 43% | 61% |
| Noise at least as low as 75% of same-size rivals | 10% | 38% |
| 3PMSF snow symbol | 35% | 39% |
| Median rolling noise | 72 dB | 71 dB |
The “75% of same-size rivals” rows compare each tyre only with tyres of the same size, class and season, so a brand that sells mostly small or mostly large sizes gains no advantage from its size range. Because many tyres share a class, more than a quarter of all tyres reach this mark. The class A rows do not adjust for size.
