In a state in which a pneumatic tire is mounted on a specified rim, inflated to 92% of a specified internal pressure, and loaded with a load of 75% of the maximum load capacity, an average thickness of an undertread rubber is smaller in a center region than in a shoulder region, a ratio (CAO/UAO) is 0.15 or more and 0.95 or less, a ratio (UAI/UAO) is less than 1, and a ratio (L/W) is 0.29 or more and 0.51 or less, in a tire meridian cross-sectional view, where CAO, UAO and UAI are cross-sectional areas of the cap tread rubber, the undertread rubber, and the undertread rubber in the center region, respectively, L is a tire width direction dimension from a defined intersection point to a ground contact edge, and W is a tire width direction dimension of each shoulder region.
