Market Estimation, Growth Drivers & Opportunities

Green tyres reduce fuel consumption and CO₂ emissions via advanced compound formulations and optimized tread design. Key growth drivers include:

• Environmental regulations and labelling mandates such as EU tyre-labeling requirements increasing demand for LRR tyres. These encourage OEM and aftermarket adoption 

• EV proliferation: Low rolling resistance is critical to maximizing EV range, fuelling demand for green tyres tailored to electric vehicles .

• Consumer eco-awareness: Buyers now prioritize fuel-efficient, sustainable products, driving market growth across passenger and commercial segments 

• Circular economy efforts: Adoption of recycled rubber, biomaterials like soybean oil, silica from rice husks, and natural rubber from sustainable sources is gaining traction 

Opportunities include off-road (construction/mining) green tyres, airless / puncture-resistant designs for fleet use, and material innovation with bio-based rubber sources.

U.S. Market: Recent Trends & Investment

North America is expected to be a fast-growing regional market throughout the forecast. Recent developments:

• Goodyear’s smart tyre innovation: The "SightLine" tyre, which can detect rain and ice to trigger automatic emergency braking, showcases integration of sustainability with safety tech 

• Government-supported plant modernization: Goodyear is investing over C$575 million in its Ontario plant to expand electric vehicle and sustainable tyre lines, targeting carbon neutrality by 2040

These moves emphasize North America’s dual focus on green tyre production and advanced mobility integration.
