According to a study by a tire manufacturer, we would be 78% in Europe to ride with under inflated tires. It is important to frequently check the tire pressure.<\/em><\/p>\n

What is the good tire pressure?<\/h3>\n

If these figures are accurate, this is the equivalent of 11,000 tons of CO2 to avoid if everyone put into practice the following advice:<\/p>\n

Check your tire pressure<\/strong> at least 1 every 2 months (especially in summer<\/strong><\/a>). The less the tires are inflated, the greater the fuel consumption is high. A pressure of 1.5 bar instead of 2.5 bar may cause excessive fuel consumption by 6%!<\/p>\n

Need I say more? Tons of things actually. Under inflated tires wear out faster. You will need to change more often. Tire inflation which is not balanced affect handling and can reduce the passive safety of your vehicle. Braking is longer and less accurate.<\/p>\n

So keep the pressure up!<\/p>\n

\"GonflagePneu\"Selon une \u00e9tude d'un manufacturier de pneus, nous serions 78 % en Europe \u00e0 rouler avec des pneus sous gonfl\u00e9s.<\/h2>

Si ces chiffres sont exacts, c'est l'\u00e9quivalent de 11 000 Tonnes<\/strong>\u00a0de CO2 qui pourraient \u00eatre \u00e9vit\u00e9es si tout le monde mettait en pratique le conseil suivant.<\/p>

V\u00e9rifiez\u00a0la pression de vos pneus au minimum 1 fois tous les 2 mois (en particulier par temp\u00e9ratures \u00e9lev\u00e9es) : moins les pneus sont gonfl\u00e9s, plus la consommation d'essence est \u00e9lev\u00e9e. Une pression de 1,5 bar au lieu de 2,5 bars peut ainsi entra\u00eener une surconsommation de carburant de 6 % !<\/p>

Que dire de plus ? Des pneus sous gonfl\u00e9s s'usent plus vite. Vous devrez les changer plus souvent. Des pneus dont le gonflage n'est pas \u00e9quilibr\u00e9 alt\u00e8rent la tenue de route et peuvent r\u00e9duire la s\u00e9curit\u00e9 passive de votre v\u00e9hicule. Les freinages sont plus longs et moins pr\u00e9cis.<\/p>

Alors ne vous d\u00e9gonflez plus, et maintenez la pression.<\/p>
