TÜV SÜD: Time to plan the changeover to winter tyres

It's the same every year: long queues at tyre dealers and garages are evidence that winter tyres only occur to most of us when the first snow starts to fall. Drivers who want to skip the queues should plan their changeover to winter tyres now, advise the experts at TÜV SÜD. They point out that winter tyres are mandatory in Germany and remind car owners that a new tyre marking scheme will be introduced from November to provide guidance concerning wet grip, rolling resistance and external noise. TÜV SÜD also advises motorists on what to watch out for when buying new tyres, to put the brakes on rising mobility costs.

TÜV SÜD: Euro 6 trucks hold their own in fuel savings

At the IAA Commercial Vehicles in Hanover, TÜV SÜD and publishing company Huss-Verlag have presented the first results from the long-term truck test series bestof9.eu. An important finding was that Euro 6 vehicles are well able to hold their own in fuel economy – a clear signal to the automotive industry, which has the widely held view that trucks built to the new standard are inefficient. After the completion of 40,000 kilometres to date, a Euro 6 truck is actually leading the field by a short head: the Mercedes Benz New Actros Euro 6 returns consumption of just under 28 litres of diesel per 100 kilometres. Second and third places are currently held by the Renault Premium and the MAN TGX EfficientLine, both Euro 5.

The report was published by the Association of German TÜV companies (VdTÜV) in the trade magazine Verkehrsrundschau to mark the IAA Commercial Vehicles exhibition to be held in Hanover from 20 to 27 September 2012. It summarizes the evaluation of over 1.2 million datasets collected by the TÜV companies during vehicle roadworthiness inspections. The sobering conclusion: after only five years, one in five commercial vehicles is shown to have faults impacting on vehicle safety which are serious enough to prevent the vehicle from passing its roadworthiness inspection.
