Abstract: A pneumatic vehicle tire is for use in winter driving conditions and defines an axial direction (aR) and a circumferential direction (uR). The pneumatic vehicle tire includes a tread having a plurality of profile blocks. The profile blocks have sipes. The tread has two axially outwardly arranged shoulder regions and further has a central tread region arranged between the two shoulder regions. The profile blocks each have two profile block edges. The profile blocks each have a surface defining a plurality of grooves therein. The grooves are arranged in parallel and extend from one of the two profile block edges to the other one of the two profile block edges. The grooves are arranged approximately in the axial direction (aR) in the central tread region and approximately in the circumferential direction (uR) in the shoulder regions.
