A new study led by an international team of scientists highlights tire particles (TPs) as the leading contributor to microplastics and calls for urgent, targeted research to address their unique environmental and health risks.
Accounting for nearly one-third of all microplastics,
I wonder if traction control and antilock braking make a noticeable difference, and how that compares to weight?
For example my EV is a bit heavier than my previous ICE car and has much better acceleration, both of which increase tire wear. However with individual all wheel drive, traction control and antilock braking, I should never see any skidding behavior where you’d expect the most tire wear. Is it enough to make up for the increased weigh? No idea
