New Fulda EcoControl HP

Fulda, one of the leading German tire brands, is introducing a summer tire from the High Performance segment, i.e. for high-performance vehicles. Fulda EcoControl HP is a response to the very dynamic development of this market segment.

EcoControl has been designed with drivers in mind. dynamic and safe driving. Thanks to advanced technologies (AquaFlow system, EcoTread tread, modern silica-based rubber compound), the tire has a short braking distance both on wet and dry surfaces. The technologies used in the tires also contribute to lower rolling resistance and thus lower fuel consumption.

The Fulda EcoControl HP has been extensively tested by the independent research institute TÜV SÜD Automotive with very good results ("well balanced high performance tyre"). This tire meets high demands, as evidenced by the test results: good braking performance on dry and wet surfaces, as well as excellent performance in the field of rolling resistance.

Fulda EcoControl HP is a combination of efficiency and very good control over the car while driving. The modern design of the tire provides a large area of ​​contact between the tire and the ground during braking (the tread blocks are “flattened”), which reduces the braking distance on dry surfaces by up to 5%. The silica-based tread compound provides very good traction, while the increased number of ribs, together with the AquaFlow channel system, ensure effective water evacuation from under the front of the tire. Braking distances

in wet conditions it was reduced by 9%.

The reinforced design of the Fulda EcoControl HP allows the vehicle to move at high speeds. The EcoTread tread, combined with a modern rubber compound, reduces rolling resistance by 9% and thus reduces fuel consumption.

“The launch of the new Fulda EcoControl HP tire is further proof that we are delivering on our promise to offer high quality, durable and reliable tires at affordable prices. The new Fulda summer tire has been designed to meet the ever-changing road conditions, including the increasingly frequent rainy season in Europe. At the same time, we believe that an economical tire does not necessarily mean a compromise in terms of quality. EcoControl HP is an achievement of German engineers that provides drivers with a sense of confidence behind the wheel,” said Radoslaw Bulkowski, director of the Goodyear Group's passenger car tires division for Poland, Ukraine and Moldova.
