​Goodyear FUELMAX best in TÜV SÜD test

of fuel

costs per year per vehicle when compared to the next best of the competitor

tested and over £1,600 if compared to the average. This means the Goodyear

FUELMAX tyres are leading in fuel savings.



The rolling resistance test results were divided into the three areas -

steer, drive and trailer tyres and in all tests the Goodyear FUELMAX and

Marathon LHT II tyres clearly outperformed the competitors.



"These tests really assess the outstanding fuel economy our new FUELMAX

tyres offer to fleet operators helping them to reduce costs. FUELMAX tyres

are the most fuel efficient in the Goodyear range and these results

underline our belief that they are the most fuel efficient tyres on the

market today," said Marc Preedy, Commercial Director, Goodyear UK.



FUELMAX is Goodyear's fuel-efficient line focusing on reduced rolling

resistance with no compromise on mileage, wet braking or other key areas of

performance. The FUELMAX D drive tyre also meets both M+S and Thee-Peak

Snow Flake winter tyre requirements, making this is a true all season

tyre. The high fuel saving potential of the FUELMAX range, inferred now

from the TÜV SÜD test results on rolling resistance, is also reflected in

their very good EU tyre label ratings for Fuel Efficiency: Six out of seven

of the currently available Goodyear FUELMAX fuel efficiency line tyres have

obtained label gradings of A or B.
