Goodyear Eagle Exhilarate is a year-round Ultra-High-Performance asymmetric tire offering good traction, steering precision, braking performance, and maneuverability on wet surfaces. New for 2019 targeting the North American market.
The Goodyear Eagle Exhilarate tire is the result of more than three years of research and testing and is tailored to meet consumer needs, particularly wet performance. In the lineup, they will replace the Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric All-Season tires.
The Eagle Exhilarate uses several patented technologies from Goodyear. ActiveGrip improves tire traction and handling. ActiveBraking helps reduce braking distances on wet and dry surfaces. As a result of the use of ActiveStrength Technology, the tire has a lightweight yet durable internal structure that significantly improves handling.
A new all-weather tread compound with an optimized combination of high-performance polymers and resins improves Goodyear Eagle Exhilarate traction on wet, dry, and snowy roads.
The wear indicators located in eight places around the tire circumference allow car owners to visually determine the residual tread depth and uneven wear.
The Goodyear Eagle Exhilarate all-season tire is designed for premium passenger cars. The Exhilarate is a UHP ultra-high-performance tire that features an enhanced longitudinal grip for faster acceleration and superior wet performance. The Goodyear Eagle Exhilarate replaces the high-performance Eagle F1 Asymmetric All-Season.
The multifunctional tread with an asymmetrical arrangement of blocks, united in five longitudinal ribs, provides effective traction on any type of road. The tire tread combines a set of patented technologies to achieve maximum performance. ActiveGrip technology improves tire traction and grip by increasing the tire-to-road contact patch. The heavy-duty, lightweight ActiveStrength casing design improves handling and durability. The new all-season tread compound with an optimal combination of high-performance polymers reinforced with traction resins guarantees optimal grip on wet, dry, and snowy roads in a wide range of temperatures.
One of the most significant innovations for the North American market is the Goodyear Eagle Exhilarate UHP all-season tires, which offer enhanced longitudinal grip for accelerated acceleration and, according to the manufacturer, best-in-class wet performance. “With their advanced technology and excellent wet performance, Exhilarate fully demonstrates the high-quality level of the entire Eagle line,” said Mike Dwyer, director of the customer service for Goodyear North America.

Tires are manufactured using a range of technologies such as ActiveGrip (even pressure distribution across the contact patch improves handling), ActiveBraking (contact area increases under load, shortening the braking distance), and ActiveStrength (a durable lightweight construction that has a positive effect on handling). In addition, the new rubber compound with special polymers and resins improves grip on dry and wet surfaces, as well as on snow, and another feature of the tires is the presence of wear indicators.

Dallas also premiered the new Goodyear WinterCommand mid-range studded winter tires. The launch of this model signals the start of a renewal of the brand's winter tire range, Mr. Dwyer said. “We want to refresh our winter tire range and we are confident that WinterCommand will engage consumers and help us accelerate development in a segment with huge potential,” he added.
Goodyear features multiple zig-zag sipes that increase traction on snow and ice, while their rubber compound remains functional at low temperatures. The novelty will be available with three tread patterns optimized for different types of vehicles. The line will include 54 dimensions with speed indices Q, S, and T.
