Range Rover and FIAT models to sport Goodyear tyres

The latest Range River Sport and the new FIAT 500X are both to be equipped with Goodyear tyres as Original Equipment.

The new FIAT 500X will be factory-fitted with Goodyear EfficientGrip Performance and Eagle F1 Asymmetric 2 tyres. These align with the Italian model’s commitment to style, performance and high quality materials.

The FIAT 500X was unveiled at the Paris Motor Show and is a compact crossover. It is available in two versions – a hip, urban car for those with a metropolitan outlook and, a more rugged, sporty offering for active adventure-seekers.

The 500X urban car will be fitted with Goodyear EfficientGrip Performance tyres in size 215/55RI7 and the sporty version with Eagle F1 Asymmetric 2 tyres in size 225/45R18.

“We are pleased to offer tyres that not only fit the overall polish and panache of the FIAT 500X but are also customised to fulfil the car’s different driving needs. The Goodyear EfficientGrip Performance tyre provides excellent rolling resistance and braking performance suitable for a city car, while the Eagle F1 Asymmetric 2 has a large rim size, offering exceptional braking and handling,” said Hans Vrijsen.
