ETRTO analysis of the European C3 tyre market segmentation, emission levels per tyre segment, and vehicle configurations. ETRTO recommends focusing on Segment A (Heavy Duty Tyres 22.5 for Long haul and regional usage), which captures approximately 71% of wear emissions. ETRTO evaluated five alternative methods to the convoy method using criteria including time to market, representativeness, regulatory suitability, and cost. ETRTO concludes the convoy method focusing on Segment A is the only feasible method given the mandated timeline, despite drawbacks including test duration and environmental impact.
