Goodyear's all-new Assurance MaxGuard tyre: Doubly assured
If you've been on the hunt for a set of tyres to replace those on your family sedan or hatchback, you're in luck.
Goodyear has just introduced a new member of its Assurance family, the Assurance MaxGuard, to the Singapore market. Tailored for the mid-passenger segment, this newly developed tyre represents a perfect fusion of safety and performance, assuring you and your family a protected journey.
Drawing inspiration from the legendary innovation of Eagle-360 concept tyre, the Assurance MaxGuard integrates a '2-IN-1 PROTECTION' system that is engineered to cater to the needs of safety-seekers.
Aligned with the pursuit of safety under all kinds of road conditions, this not only delivers a longer drive life without compromising on the thrill of the journey, but also an exhilarating driving experience that amplifies the joy of hitting the road.
To be specific, the Assurance MaxGuard family is equipped with Goodyear's innovative ActiveGrip Technology and DuraGuard Technology - both of which offer safety-seeking consumers the promise of what the firm has dubbed '2-IN-1 PROTECTION'.
Together, these two technologies help the tyre to deal with wet roads and tough road conditions with superior grip performance, shorter wet braking performance and longer mileage performance.
The first piece of the 2-in-1 puzzle: ActiveGrip Technology
One part of the larger pictured can be credited to the integration of Goodyear's ActiveGrip technology. This helps the tyre achieve a water-wave shield pattern, which gives it impressive performance on wet roads by improving grip while reducing braking distance.
On the note of better grip, a large portion of the credit is due to the tyre's design; it now sports a new generation full silica tread compound, with 80% more silica compared to the compound on Goodyear's previous-generation Assurance TripleMax 2. Combined with wet booster resin, the tyre's bolstered levels of micro contact with the road help it adjust better to road roughness.
On the other hand, the tyre's ability to provide shorter wet braking distances is aided by its water-channeling pattern design, which increases its number of cutting edges by 5% (again, compared to the Assurance TripleMax 2). In turn, this helps to increase friction between the tyre and road surface too, allowing your vehicle to stop faster.
The second piece: DuraGuard Technology
It's not just assurance in wet weather that the Assurance MaxGuard provides, though, but also assurance over the long run - in terms of durability against wear and tear. This is where the second half of the 2-IN-1 Protection system comes into play, with the tyre's integration of DuraGuard Technology.
Goodyear's DuraGuard Technology arms the Assurance MaxGuard with wear-resistant materials and stronger construction against unexpected cuts and impacts on tough roads.
Helping to protect the tyre against damage from road debris is its tough structure - comprising a two-layer carcass ply with higher cord density and strength, as well as two belts with high tensile steel*. What results is a robust tyre carcass and crown configuration, which in turn, defend it against strong cuts and impacts.
Additionally, the tread pattern design and compound formation - which includes high performance polymers - help to implement strong reinforcements that enhance the tyre's tread wear further resulting in longer tyre life.
Full assurance, for a full range of vehicles
The cherry on top of the icing? The Assurance MaxGuard tyre has been built to be accessible to a wide group of drivers plying Singapore's roads.
Goodyear states that the Assurance MaxGuard is the ideal fitment for many brands of mid-passenger sedans and hatchbacks in Singapore. Popular cars include the Honda HR-V/Vezel, Toyota Corolla Altis, Toyota Prius, Hyundai Avante, Kia Cerato K3 and Volkswagen Golf, to name just a few.
