Goodyear EfficientGrip Compact is a premium tyre which provides long mileage, fuel efficiency and confidence on both dry and wet surfaces . Engineers have reduced the weight of the tyre, which contributed to better rolling resistance. As a result, Goodyear EfficientGrip Compact provides lower fuel consumption, the tyre is also more eco-friendly due to the reduction of CO2 emissions into the atmosphere. Thanks to the specially designed tread, the tyre pressure on the surface is even, which helps maintain high performance throughout the model’s longevity.
The tread pattern stands out with double wide circumferential grooves and transverse tubules, which quickly disperses water from under the tyre, providing a shorter braking distance and minimising the possibility of aquaplaning . For the production, the Goodyear EfficientGrip Compact uses an innovative mix of rubber, which has improved the surface of the tyre footprint and provided better traction regardless the state of the road. The model provides precise steering, therefore very well suited for driving in the city, during which they show their full potential. In addition, Goodyear EfficientGrip Compact means comfort and silence in the car, achieved through improved by a damping sounds design . Maximum performance and safety in all conditions are the parameters that make Goodyear EfficientGrip Compact appreciated by many drivers worldwide. The model is ideally suited to the extreme and variable weather conditions.
