Goodyear adds 29 new sizes for Vector 4Seasons Gen-3

Goodyear has expanded its all-season Vector 4Seasons Gen-3 tyre range with the addition of 29 new sizes, 17 of which are 19-inch and above to cater to the increased popularity of new vehicles fitted with large, premium wheels.

According to Goodyear, the Vector 4Seasons is optimised to fit the latest vehicles such as the Audi SQ8 e-tron and Ford Explorer, as well as popular models like the Polestar 2 and BMW X3.

The tyre is EV-ready thanks to its low rolling resistance and noise characteristics, making it a great choice for the likes of the Volkswagen ID.Buzz and ID.7.

Goodyear Vector 4Seasons Gen-3 is a European Three-Peak Mountain Snowflake (3PMSF) certified tire with exceptional summer and winter performance.

The technology within the tyre helps it grip in wet, snow and icy conditions thanks to a cutting-edge tread pattern design, which doesn’t compromise dry performance thanks to a compound that can operate in a wide range of temperatures.

The tyre also features Goodyear SealTech in a range of sizes, which is designed to effectively seal tread penetrations of up to 5mm, so that the tyre remains inflated until it can be professionally inspected.

Goodyear says its SoundComfort Technology has been developed to lower the cabin noise associated with tyres. This technology can lead to a 50 per cent reduction in noise thanks to a sound cushion placed inside the tyre, particularly important for electrified vehicles.

Sonia Leneveu, director marketing consumer Europe, Goodyear, said: “We’re pleased that following the success of the Goodyear Vector 4Seasons Gen-3, we are making it available to more vehicles in the premium segment.

“Our most advanced all-season tyre, which features some of the most advanced technologies in the industry, has contributed in popularising all-season tyres across Europe. The number of sizes available demostrates how Goodyear is at the forefront of tyre innovation.

“This extension will allow our customers to offer the Goodyear Vector 4Seasons Gen-3 to many more consumers with a broader range of vehicles, offering them the efficiency and convenience they are looking for.”
