How Michelin X One® Tires Can Help Fleets Save Fuel


Learn how Michelin X One® tires can help reduce rolling resistance and fuel consumption compared with traditional dual-tire configurations

How Can Michelin X One® Tires Help Reduce Fuel Consumption?


Michelin X One® tires replace traditional dual-tire configurations with a single wide-base tire. With two sidewalls instead of four, plus advanced tread and casing technologies, Michelin X One® tires can reduce rolling resistance by up to 30% compared with duals.

Because rolling resistance accounts for approximately 35% of a truck's fuel consumption at 65 mph, reducing rolling resistance can help fleets improve fuel efficiency.

How Does Rolling Resistance Affect Truck Fuel Consumption?


A truck engine must overcome several forces to maintain speed. At 65 mph, aerodynamic drag, mechanical losses and rolling resistance all contribute to fuel consumption.
 

AERODYNAMIC DRAG

Rolling resistance accounts for approximately 35% of fuel consumption.

How Does Tire Design Affect Rolling Resistance?


Rolling resistance can come from different parts of a tire as it flexes and deforms while rolling. Michelin X One® tires use advanced technologies designed to help manage these sources of rolling resistance.

How Do Michelin X One® Tires Reduce Rolling Resistance?


Michelin X One® tires can reduce rolling resistance by up to 30% compared with duals.

With two sidewalls instead of the usual four, plus advanced tread and casing technologies, Michelin X One® tires can help reduce the energy lost as tires roll.

How Can Lower Rolling Resistance Help Fleets Save Fuel?


Reducing tire rolling resistance can help reduce the amount of fuel a truck needs to maintain speed. With Michelin X One® tires, fleets can achieve over 4% fuel savings compared with dual-tire configurations.
