GOODYEAR EFFICIENT GRIP PASSENGER 185/65/R14

Why choose this tyre

Lower fuel consumption

We use FuelSaving Technology to create a new base compound that reduces the tire's energy dissipation. Rolling resistance is reduced by 18%* meaning improved fuel efficiency and lower driving costs for you.

A-rated wet grip

Rated A for wet grip performance, the highest rating awarded under EU regulations.

Shorter braking distances for driving confidence

ActiveBraking Technology increases contact between the tyre and the road surface for shorter braking distances – up to two metres (8%) shorter on wet roads and 3% shorter in the dry.

Improved wet braking and lower rolling resistance

WearControl Technology ensures an optimal balance between wet grip and low rolling resistance for the life of the tyre.

An "efficient grip tire" likely refers to a type of tire designed to provide good traction, handling, and fuel efficiency. Tires play a crucial role in how a vehicle performs on the road, and their design can impact factors such as fuel consumption, road grip, noise, and overall driving comfort.

Here are some characteristics of a tire with an efficient grip:

1. Traction: Efficient grip tires are designed to provide optimal traction on various road surfaces, including wet, dry, and even snowy conditions. This helps ensure the vehicle maintains control and stability while driving.
2. Fuel Efficiency: Efficient grip tires are often engineered to minimize rolling resistance. Lower rolling resistance means the tires require less energy to roll, which can result in improved fuel efficiency and reduced CO2 emissions.
3. Wear Resistance: These tires are typically designed to have a longer lifespan, which means they wear out more slowly compared to tires with less efficient grip. This helps to extend the tire's usability and reduce the frequency of replacements.
4. Noise Reduction: Tires with efficient grip often incorporate technology to minimize road noise and provide a quieter ride. This contributes to driving comfort, especially on highways and smooth roads.
5. Handling and Performance: These tires are designed to provide good handling characteristics, allowing the driver to maintain control during cornering, braking, and accelerating. They often have specialized tread patterns and rubber compounds to achieve this.
6. Safety: Efficient grip tires are designed with safety in mind, aiming to provide consistent performance in a variety of conditions. This includes reliable braking capabilities and stability to prevent skidding or hydroplaning on wet surfaces.
7. Tread Design: The tread pattern of efficient grip tires is carefully designed to channel water away from the tire's contact patch during wet conditions. This reduces the risk of hydroplaning and maintains traction.
8. Size and Fit: Choosing the right tire size and type for your specific vehicle is crucial. Efficient grip tires need to be compatible with your vehicle's specifications to provide the intended benefits.
