2022-12-05

 

The competitive marketplace creates new business opportunities among tyre dealers who are able to consistently meet the needs of consumers with the right tyres – as overall tyre industry forecast indicates robust yearly growth of 2.3% – 4.7% towards 2026.         

Bringing attention to these needs, the consumer-oriented research organization, Consumer Reports evaluated the buying experience by analyzing 15,945 tyre purchases to identify how consumers ultimately made their choice when shopping for new tyres.

 

 

Grip Reliability

Brand Influence
Consumers commonly chose tyres based on price more than brand loyalty with 43% of tyre consumers opting particular brands when shopping for new tyres.
