Goodyear Malaysia has officially launched Assurance MaxGuard, the latest member of the Assurance family, enabling safety seekers and family guardians enjoy the pleasure of driving backed by the promise of 2-in-1 protection.
ActiveGrip Technology – Grip Protection
Inspired by Goodyear’s innovative 360 tyres, the Assurance MaxGuard is equipped with ActiveGrip Technology that enables vehicles to stop faster and safer. The pioneering design of the water-wave shield pattern helps to increase friction and the optimised cavity shape increases the contact patch by 10%*. Both features contribute to better performance on the wet road with shorter braking distance.
The new generation of full silica tread compound with 80% more silica** combined with a wet booster resin can adjust to the road roughness with more micro contact to achieve a stronger grip on the road, especially under wet conditions.
DuraGuard Technology – Impact Protection
The armour-like shield pattern represents the robustness of Assurance MaxGuard. To build stronger and tougher tyres to withstand road impacts, the engineers leveraged the DuraGuard Technology to optimise the compound materials and tyre construction. Extra robustness is supported by two layers carcass ply with higher cord density and strength and two belts with high tensile steel to cope with unexpected cuts and impacts.
Besides outstanding performance on the wet road and durability, the Assurance MaxGuard is built to deliver the very best in mileage as well. Non-skid gauges are increased by 10%*** to enhance wearable rubber volume while high-performance polymers matrix is added into the new compound formation to provide good wear resistance.
“When engineering the Assurance MaxGuard tyre, we wanted to introduce a new level of safety to enable our consumers to explore the unlimited possibilities on the road,” comments Greg Hanna, Vice President of Asia Pacific Product Development.” The exceptional wet performance and the reliable durability of the product offer 2-in-1 protection, ensuring everyone’s safety.”
