Abstract: The invention relates to a pneumatic vehicle tire having two or more belt plies which have reinforcement members crossing one another at an angle, wherein the reinforcement members within each belt ply are arranged substantially parallel to and spaced apart from one another and are embedded in rubber material, wherein the belt has at least one first belt ply, the reinforcement members of which are formed by steel monofilaments of the reinforcement member class Ultra-Tensile (UT) with in each case a tensile strength of 3080 N/mm2 to 4190 N/mm2, wherein the steel monofilaments have a diameter D of 0.33 mm to 0.37 mm. It is the object of the invention to provide, at lower cost, a pneumatic vehicle tyre with low rolling resistance, by way of simultaneously simplified production. This is achieved in that the steel monofilaments have a torsion value of approximately zero windings in the case of a length dimension of 200 times the diameter of the steel monofilament.
