Method and apparatus for determining driving distance of tire

The invention relates to a method and an apparatus for determining the driving distance of a tire. In the method for determining the driving distance of a tire, a first current driving distance is measured over a limited period for the first time, and a second current driving distance is measured over a limited period for the second time, wherein a measurement-free rest period is provided between the first measurement and the second measurement; and the driving distance during the rest period is estimated on the basis of the first current driving distance and/or the second current driving distance. In addition, the method is repeated with the already performed second measurement performed at the place for the first measurement. Since a supply of power is not needed or at least can be significantly reduced during the rest period, the power requirement for the driving distance determination during the service life of the tire can be significantly reduced, which simplifies the supply of power for the driving dis
