Existing C1 tyre-abrasion test methods cannot be directly applied to C3 tyres because vehicles equipped with C3 tyres are used differently. Japan is developing a vehicle test method using WHVC mode and plans to develop a drum test method based on test conditions and results. Test conditions will convert vehicle driving conditions representing the world into indoor drum test settings. C2 test method uses driving mode based on WLTP with fixed test load details, with verification tests using reference tyres. For C3, driving modes and test conditions are under preliminary investigation, with verification tests to be planned.
