Summer tyres generally suit the UK market as a tyre that is fitted to vehicles in the UK thanks to our mild climate. As a rule of thumb, the high tread elasticity and stiff compounds of a summer tyre perform best in temperatures above 7°c in both wet and dry conditions. The benefit of this is that drivers get outstanding grip, responsive handling, and shorter braking distances.
Using tyres specifically designed for SUV use means the tyre is designed to take the additional weight and higher centre of gravity of an SUV. Choosing the right seasonal tyre for your SUV is especially important due to the heavier vehicle weight SUV tyres must carry. This means having the right tyres for the right weather can make a big difference on the way the vehicle performs, brakes, and handles on the road.
When it comes to selecting the best summer tyres for your SUV, it’s important to take into consideration key elements such as:
The Goodyear EfficientGrip 2 SUV is EV ready thanks to low rolling resistance and Mileage Plus Technology, proven to provide 25% more mileage than the predecessor*, whilst not compromising on handling and safety features.
*Compared to predecessor EfficientGrip SUV
High tread elasticity and flexibility results in less fractures caused by rough road conditions (over a wide range of temperatures).
Thanks to Dry Braking Technology, our SUV tyre's contact with the road is increased when braking, so you can stop in a shorter distance in both wet and dry conditions.
Lower compound stiffness facilitates block bending and wiping out of water. Longer and increased number of gripping edges facilitates water evacuation.
Goodyear’s range of SUV summer tyres have won recognition from many independent bodies and motoring magazines:
The EfficientGrip 2 SUV was highly recommended in the Tyre Reviews 2021 SUV Tyre Test thanks to its outstanding performance in both dry and wet conditions, short braking distances and high level of traciton for grass and gravel terrain. It did all of this whilst still providing an outstanding level of SUV ride comfort.
Taking top spot in the AutoBild Allrad 2021 Tyre Test where it demonstrated exemplary performance on all test surfaces, the EfficientGrip 2 SUV provided short braking distances in dry and wet conditions whilst also boasting best performance for rolling resistance and fuel efficiency.
