AKRON, Ohio, Dec. 17, 2021 – The #goodyear Tire & Rubber Company announced the launch of the new ElectricDrive GT. Marking Goodyear’s first replacement tire in North America tuned for electric vehicles (EVs), the #goodyear ElectricDrive GT is an ultra-high performance, all-season tire that delivers long-lasting tread wear and a quiet ride for #ev drivers and passengers.

“Products that anticipate the mobility needs of consumers are central to Goodyear’s focus on innovation excellence. Electric vehicles present a very specific set of requirements for load, torque, noise, range, rolling resistance and overall performance,” said David Reese, vice president, Product Development, #goodyear Americas. “We’re proud to deliver leading technologies to serve the evolving #ev landscape.”

The ElectricDrive GT features Goodyear’s SoundComfort Technology®, which acts as a built-in sound barrier that helps reduce road noise. It is also designed with an asymmetric tread pattern and specialized tread compound that provide enhanced all-season traction, giving #ev drivers confident handling in both wet and dry road conditions.

“With the continued growth in the #ev segment, #goodyear recognized an opportunity to provide consumers with a tire designed for the unique needs of these vehicles,” said Andrew Lau, product marketing manager. “We know drivers are looking for a replacement tire that delivers enhanced tread wear without sacrificing performance. The ElectricDrive GT was designed with that in mind, and we’re thrilled to bring this option to market for #ev drivers in the U.S.”

While #goodyear plans to expand the ElectricDrive product portfolio in 2022, the initial release of the #goodyear ElectricDrive GT is available in size 255/45R19 104W XL. This tire will be available through #goodyear.com and is an ideal fit for some of the most popular #ev high-performance models.
