“The Goodyear Tire & Rubber” (hereinafter – Goodyear) expands the range of Eagle F1 Asymetric 6 sizes. This tire has already received several awards. Now the offer has been expanded with four new sizes to include new electric and sports SUVs that have become popular across Europe.
The improved composition of the new tires allows better adaptation to the road surface, and also provides excellent grip and stability in both dry and wet weather.
During 2023, the tires will be available in four new sizes, giving the opportunity to equip such popular car models as KIA Sportage, Peugeot 5008 and Tesla Model 3. Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 6’s low rolling resistance and high load resistance make it suitable for modern SUVs and electric vehicles . The tire includes Dry Stability Plus technology, which allows better adaptation to the road surface, as well as provides better grip and stability. Changes have also been made to the composition, improving its performance in wet weather. A sound dampening material is incorporated into the tire structure of electric cars, which ensures a reduction of road noise by even one decibel.
“The Eagle F1 Asymmetric 6 range now provides high-quality tires for the majority of the market. The growing number of electric and sport utility vehicles in Europe has encouraged a wider range of sizes to be offered. We invite you to take advantage of the current range of Eagle F1 Asymmetric 6, thus improving the handling and efficiency of the car. At the same time, currently work is underway on product development in order to ensure even higher quality,” says Goodyear representative Sonia Leneveu.
The new tire sizes are inspired by the growing popularity of electric and sports SUVs in Europe. In general, sales of new cars decreased in 2022, but sports SUVs, on the contrary, increased, as the range of these car models increased. Last year, sales of new sports SUVs accounted for 43% of the total European market, which is 10% more than in 2021. Electric cars, on the other hand, accounted for 12% of the total market in Europe in 2022 (in 2021 they were 9%), and a total of 1.3 million cars were registered in this region.
In its first year on sale, the Eagle F1 Asymmetric 6 won several European tire tests. The car magazine Auto Motor und Sport rated it with excellence, while Auto Bild and Tire Reviews ranked it first, beating other already tested brands.
“Eagle F1 Asymmertic 6 is a tire that provides performance at the highest level due to its balance, strong aquaplaning, short braking distance, precise handling and low rolling resistance,” say representatives of Auto Bild.
Tire size 235/45R18 98Y XL and 245/40R19 101Y HL are already on sale, 225/55R18 102Y XL will be available in April and 225/55R18 98Y in June.
