Goodyear EfficientGrip ROF: The Ultimate Tire for Fuel Efficiency and Safety
Enhanced Fuel Efficiency and Environmental Benefits
Discover the Goodyear EfficientGrip ROF, engineered to deliver more miles per gallon. Featuring the advanced FuelSaving Technology, this tire combines a lightweight yet robust structure with an innovative tread compound to significantly reduce rolling resistance. This means lower fuel costs and reduced CO2 emissions on every journey, making it an eco-friendly choice for conscientious drivers.
Exceptional Longevity
The EfficientGrip ROF is designed for extended tire life, thanks to its silica tread compound which ensures higher mileage. This longevity means fewer tire replacements, saving you money and time in the long run.
Superior Wet Braking Performance
Safety is paramount with the EfficientGrip ROF. Its unique tread pattern and multifunctional water-dispersing sipes provide outstanding wet performance, ensuring shorter braking distances compared to other tires in its class. Drive with confidence, even in challenging weather conditions.
Quiet and Comfortable Ride
Experience a smoother ride with the EfficientGrip ROF. The tire's variable-length and staggered block arrangement reduce noise frequency peaks, enhancing driving comfort and ensuring a tranquil journey.
RunOnFlat Technology
Say goodbye to roadside tire changes with Goodyear's revolutionary RunOnFlat Technology. In the event of a puncture, continue driving safely at speeds of up to 80 km/h without any air pressure. This technology minimizes the risk of tire blowouts at high speeds, providing peace of mind on every trip.
The fuel-saving tire that keeps performing for longer
Fuel-saving and environmentally friendly
Long lasting better braking on wet roads
Quiet, comfortable ride
RunOnFlat technology
Goodyear’s revolutionary RunOnFlat technology allows you to drive for up to 80km on a flat tire, so you can reach a suitable place to have it changed. Reinforced sidewalls in the tire mean it can support your car’s weight even with zero air pressure, making dangerous roadside tire changes a thing of the past.
The Tire Labeling Ordinance specifies the information requirements on fuel efficiency, wet grip and external rolling noise from tires. In addition, reference is made to the winter properties of the product.
The EU 1222/2009 regulation that has been in force since November 1st, 2012 has been revised and will be replaced by regulation EU 2020/740 from May 1st, 2021; From this point on, new requirements apply. The rating classes for fuel efficiency, wet grip and exterior noise have been changed and the layout of the EU label has been adjusted. The manufacturer's product data sheets stored in the EU database can be downloaded via a QR code integrated into the label. Information on snow grip and ice grip is also newly included for tires that meet these criteria.
The following tires are exempt from the regulation: - tires that are designed exclusively for installation on vehicles that were first registered before October 1, 1990 - retreaded tires (until a corresponding extension of EU VO 2020/740 has taken place) - professional off - Road tires - Racing tires - Tires with additional devices to improve traction, eg studded tires - T-type emergency tires - Tires with a permissible speed below 80 km/h - Tires for rims with a nominal diameter ≤ 254 mm or ≥ 635 mm
The criteria and evaluation classes at a glance
fuel efficiency
The fuel consumption depends on the rolling resistance of the tyres, the vehicle itself, the driving conditions and the driving style of the driver. The measured rolling resistance (rolling resistance coefficient) of the tire is divided into classes A (highest efficiency) to E (lowest efficiency).
If a vehicle is completely equipped with class A tires, a consumption reduction of up to 7.5%* is possible compared to class E tyres. In the case of commercial vehicles, it can even be higher. (Source: European Commission Impact Assessment * when measured according to the test methods set out in Regulation (EU) 2020/740)
Please note: Fuel consumption depends to a large extent on your own driving style and can be significantly reduced by driving in an environmentally friendly manner. Tire pressure should be checked regularly to improve fuel efficiency.
wet grip
Wet grip is divided into classes A (shortest braking distance) - E (longest braking distance).
If a car is equipped with class A tires, compared to class E tires, a braking distance of up to 18 m can be reduced when braking from 80 km/h (on a road surface with average grip).* *Source: wdk Economic Association of the German Rubber Industry eV
Please note: Traffic safety depends to a large extent on your own driving style. The stopping distances must always be observed. Tire pressure should be checked regularly to improve wet grip.
External rolling noise
The noise emitted by a tire affects the overall volume of the vehicle and affects not only your own driving comfort, but also the noise pollution of the environment. In the EU tire label, the external rolling noise is divided into 3 classes from A (lowest rolling noise) - C (highest rolling noise), measured in decibels (dB) and compared with the European noise emission limit values for external tire rolling noise.
A The pictogram with the classification "A" indicates that the tire's external rolling noise is more than 3 dB below the EU limit value in force until 2016. B The "B" classification means that the tyre's external rolling noise is up to 3 dB below or equal to the EU limit value in force until 2016. C The classification "C" indicates that the specified limit value is exceeded.
