The invention relates to a vehicle pneumatic tire with incisions (5, 6) in the tread that extend at an angle of 0° to 50° to the axial direction and have an incision bottom (8) and an incision center surface (m), with a maximum depth (t) that corresponds to at least the tread depth (T) reduced by 2.0 mm, wherein each incision (5, 6) has, at least in a partial region, in cross-section, a radially outer incision section (10a) inclined to the radial direction, a radially inner incision section (10c) extending to the incision bottom (8) and inclined in the same direction relative to the radial direction as the radially outer incision section (10a), and a middle incision section (10b) extending between these two incision sections (10a, 10c), wherein the incision center surface (m) at the junction of the radially outer incision section (10a) to the middle incision section (10b) has a radially outer kink point (K) and at the junction of the middle incision section (10b) to the radially inner incision section (10c) has a radially inner kink point (K). [0002] The radially outer incision section (10a) and the radially inner incision section (10c) each have a length (c, c) of 2.0 mm to 3.0 mm determined in the radial direction relative to the incision center surface (m), wherein the radially outer incision section (10a) extends to the radial direction at an angle (α) of 15° to 30° and the radially inner incision section (10c) extends to the radial direction at an angle (γ) of 15° to 30°, wherein the radially inner kink point (K) lies on a first reference line (L) extending in the radial direction, which passes through the incision center surface (m) at the radially outer end of the radially outer incision section (10a), on a second reference line (L) extending in the radial direction, which passes through the radially outer kink point (K) of the incision center surface (m), or between the first reference line (L) and the second reference line (L).
