It helps less than you’d think. Part of the issue is that the tires are ultra low rolling resistance, and part is that the car weighs an extra ~500 lbs.

The car weighing a lot is the second issue, though, not the first. Is the ultra-low rolling resistance a third issue, or related to one of the other two?
