Road Surface Influence on Tire Rolling Resistance
https://www.astm.org/DIGITAL_LIBRARY.../STP23377S.htm
On a wide variety of surface types and conditions on dry paved roads, the coefficient of rolling resistance ranges between 0.013 and 0.021. In terms of fuel consumption, this can be converted into 9% relative influence of the road surface.
I presume this is 9% of the 2%.
