A pneumatic tire comprising: a tread having an outer surface forming a tread surface; and a belt disposed inward of the tread in a radial direction, wherein the belt includes an inner layer, and an outer layer layered outward of the inner layer in the radial direction, wherein the inner layer and the outer layer each include multiple cords (40, 44) which are formed from steel and aligned with each other, wherein a percentage (CV/BV) of a volume of the cords (40, 44) to a total volume of the belt is greater than or equal to 11% and not greater than 14%, wherein the cords of the inner layer and the cords of the outer layer are tilted relative to a circumferential direction, and wherein a direction in which the cords of the inner layer are tilted relative to the circumferential direction and a direction in which the cords of the outer layer are tilted relative to the circumferential direction are opposite to each other, characterized in that in the inner layer, an absolute value of a tilt angle αi of each cord relative to the circumferential direction in a center portion (Ci) of the inner layer is less than an absolute value of a tilt angle βi of each cord relative to the circumferential direction in shoulder portions (Si) of the inner layer, a difference between the angle αi and the angle βi is greater than or equal to 1.5° and not greater than 2.5°, in the outer layer, an absolute value of a tilt angle αo of each cord relative to the circumferential direction in a center portion (Co) of the outer layer is less than an absolute value of a tilt angle βo of each cord relative to the circumferential direction in shoulder portions (So) of the outer layer, a difference between the angle αo and the angle βo is greater than or equal to 1.5° and not greater than 2.5°, absolute values of the angles αi and αo are each from 10 degrees to 35 degrees, and the tire further comprising a band including a cord and a topping rubber, wherein the cord extends at an angle of less than or equal 5 degrees with respect to the tire circumferential direction. a tread having an outer surface forming a tread surface; and a belt disposed inward of the tread in a radial direction, wherein the belt includes an inner layer, and an outer layer layered outward of the inner layer in the radial direction, wherein the inner layer and the outer layer each include multiple cords (40, 44) which are formed from steel and aligned with each other, wherein a percentage (CV/BV) of a volume of the cords (40, 44) to a total volume of the belt is greater than or equal to 11% and not greater than 14%, wherein the cords of the inner layer and the cords of the outer layer are tilted relative to a circumferential direction, and wherein a direction in which the cords of the inner layer are tilted relative to the circumferential direction and a direction in which the cords of the outer layer are tilted relative to the circumferential direction are opposite to each other, in the inner layer, an absolute value of a tilt angle αi of each cord relative to the circumferential direction in a center portion (Ci) of the inner layer is less than an absolute value of a tilt angle βi of each cord relative to the circumferential direction in shoulder portions (Si) of the inner layer, a difference between the angle αi and the angle βi is greater than or equal to 1.5° and not greater than 2.5°, in the outer layer, an absolute value of a tilt angle αo of each cord relative to the circumferential direction in a center portion (Co) of the outer layer is less than an absolute value of a tilt angle βo of each cord relative to the circumferential direction in shoulder portions (So) of the outer layer, a difference between the angle αo and the angle βo is greater than or equal to 1.5° and not greater than 2.5°, absolute values of the angles αi and αo are each from 10 degrees to 35 degrees, and the tire further comprising a band including a cord and a topping rubber, wherein the cord extends at an angle of less than or equal 5 degrees with respect to the tire circumferential direction.
