What the label means on the road (175/65R14)
Example: the 175/65R14 size, compared with the 739 other summer tyres registered in this size.
Wet braking from 80 km/h
≈47 m with class D, against ≈41 m for the most common class in this size (C).
Fuel efficiency
Class D, the most common class in this size: no difference to the typical tyre.
Rolling noise
70 dB against a median of 70 dB in this size.
Estimates from the class ranges in Regulation (EU) 2020/740. A label class is a range, so a real tyre can sit anywhere inside it. Every 3 dB doubles the sound energy.
All 26 sizes
The small figure under each class is the share of same-size, same-season tyres this size matches or beats (“–” when fewer than five tyres share the size).
