Zeta Impero

EU tyre label for every size: 96 sizes of this summer tyre compared with the rest of the market

The Zeta Impero is a summer tyre for passenger cars. Its supplier has registered it in the EU product database (EPREL) in 96 sizes (108 registrations including load and speed variants), for 16″ to 24″ rims.

Wet grip is rated B in every size, fuel efficiency B–D and external rolling noise 71–75 dB.

The label depends on the size. Sorted by wet grip, then fuel efficiency, then noise, the best-labelled size on sale is 235/60 R16 (Wet grip B · Fuel efficiency B · 71 dB), the weakest 315/35 ZRF21 (Wet grip B · Fuel efficiency D · 75 dB).

On the EU market since May 2021; the earliest production week registered is 01/2020.

How it compares in its sizes

We compared each size with all other summer tyres of the same size and class in EPREL (92 sizes had at least four rivals). A size scores when its label is at least as good as 75% of them.

Fuel efficiency92% of compared sizes
Rolling noise17% of compared sizes

Strongest point: fuel efficiency. Weakest point: rolling noise, where most same-size rivals do as well or better.

What the label means on the road (215/65R16)

Example: the 215/65R16 size, compared with the 860 other summer tyres registered in this size.

Wet braking from 80 km/h

≈37 m with class B, against ≈41 m for the most common class in this size (C).

Fuel efficiency

Class B vs the typical C: ≈0.16 L/100 km less, about 25 litres less over 15,000 km for a 1,500 kg car.

Rolling noise

72 dB against a median of 71 dB in this size (1 dB louder).

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 96 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).
