Drivers who cover a high amount of mileage each year will already know how important tyres are to staying mobile. Part of staying mobile means tyres need to be maintained well to get the most out of them but also involves investing in the right tyres to suit your driving style initially.
The EfficientGrip Performance 2 is an outstanding choice for drivers looking for a tyre that will last the extra mile – providing up to 20% more mileage than the next best competitor** as tested by TUV Testing.
Thanks to innovative Mileage Plus Technology, the EfficientGrip Performance 2 offers up to 50% more mileage than the predecessor*. The technology provides high tread elasticity and flexibility over a wide range of temperatures which helps with reducing tyre wear caused by rough road conditions. The tyre is able to do this without compromising on wet and dry performance whilst providing exceptional tyre mileage.
Not only does the EfficientGrip Performance 2 provide 50% more mileage than the predecessor*, the Mileage Plus Technology has also enabled it to provide 20% more mileage than the next best competitor**. Carried out by TUV Testing, the test involved 4 identical vehicles driving in convoy on an approved route allowing for equal conditions and test parameters for each measuring interval. The test conditions were designed to recreate high mileage driving conditions and covered testing of the top 5 premium tyre brands. The test determined overall; the EfficientGrip Performance 2 was superior in providing drivers with additional milage.
A tyre’s lifespan varies dependent on the quality of the tyre, driving style, road conditions and how well it’s maintained to name only a few variables. TUV Testing showed that the EfficientGrip Performance 2 is able to provide up to an additional 6,800 miles compared to the next best competitor – enough to drive from Birmingham to Nairobi.
As well as Mileage Plus Technology, the EfficientGrip Performance 2 offers further benefits for high mileage drivers helping to cope with unpredictable UK weather conditions:
High tread elasticity and flexibility assists with less tyre wear caused by rough road conditions in a range of temperatures with no compromise on wet and dry performance provides exceptional tyre mileage.
Lower compound stiffness facilitates block bending and wiping out of water provide shorter wet braking giving you the confidence when driving.
Making its magazine test debut in the Auto Express Sumer Tyre Test 2020, the EfficientGrip Performance 2 put forward an outstanding performance against competitors to take first place on the podium as well as winning the following Product Awards 2021.
EfficientGrip Performance 2 scored 100% in the following tests: Dry handling, Rolling resistance and Cabin noise.
