the claim

Rolling resistance of a tyre is caused mainly by energy lost as the rubber deforms and recovers (hysteresis) where it meets the road.

Is it true that rolling resistance of a tyre is caused mainly by energy lost as the rubber deforms and recovers (hysteresis) where it meets the road?

Yes. Multiple reference and peer-reviewed sources state that rolling resistance is mainly caused by non-elastic deformation of the tyre, specifically hysteresis losses and permanent deformation where the tyre meets the road.
