Description
The Goodyear EfficientGrip SUV summer tyre must be resilient if it is to perform at its best on both dry and wet roads. The EfficientGrip SUV also features a rubber compound that tends to lower rolling resistance and three-dimensional sipes that promote shorter braking distances.
Improved steering accuracy and handling:
Responsive steering and handling thanks to the EfficientGrip SUV's reduced weight and design optimised for cornering resistance.
Long life:
The EfficientGrip SUV offers you higher mileage, extending the time until your next tyre change. The silica tread compound ensures longer life and saves money.
Shorter braking distances when it counts:
Shorter braking distances on wet roads.* Special traction resins in the tread provide improved grip when braking on wet surfaces. The tread pattern features three-dimensional shoulder sipes that increase grip when braking on dry roads.* Compared to the average performance of 3 well-known competitors. Braking distance on wet road from 80km/h to 20km/h, braking distance on dry road from 100 km/h to 0km/h, measured by TÜV SÜD Automotive in Sep-Oct 2011 on behalf of Goodyear; Tyre size: 215/65R16 98H; Vehicle: VW Tiguan 2.0 TDI; Location: Mireval (FR) & Garching (GE); Report no.: 76247158
Fuel-saving design:
Reduce your fuel costs and CO2 emissions with the EfficientGrip SUV. Goodyear's FuelSaving Technology combines a lightweight structure with advanced materials that reduce rolling resistance. This has resulted in a tyre that not only saves you money, but also the environment.
Manufacturer information
EU Tyre Label
The Tyre Labelling Regulation determines the information that must be provided with regard to tyres' fuel efficiency, wet grip and external rolling noise. Information is also provided on the product's performance in wintery driving conditions.
Regulation EU 1222/2009, which has been in force since 01/11/2012, has been revised and will be replaced from 1 May 2021 by Regulation EU 2020/740, from which point new standards will apply. The assessment categories for fuel efficiency, wet grip and external noise have been changed and the layout of the EU label has been changed accordingly. The manufacturers' product data sheets, stored in the EU database, can be downloaded via a QR code integrated into the label. It also includes information on snow grip and ice grip for tyres that meet these criteria.
The following tyres are exempt from the regulation:
- Tyres designed to be fitted only to vehicles registered for the first time before 1 October 1990
- Remoulded tyres (until Regulation EU 2020/740 has been widened accordingly)
- Professional off-road tyres
- Racing tyres
- Tyres with additional devices to improve traction, e.g. studded tyres
- Temporary-use spare tyres (T-type tyres)
- Tyres with a speed rating below 80 km/h
- Tyres with a nominal rim diameter of 254 mm or less and 635 mm or more
