| The GT3, with BioTRED technology, will
revolutionise the industry with its impact on our environment and safety.
Goodyear´s BioTRED technology partly replaces oil derivatives and
silica in the tread compound with a new ingredient derived from
cornstarch, which impacts on the environment at three levels:
Environment – corn plants absorb CO2
to release O2 in the atmosphere.
Production – requires less energy to produce, reducing CO2
emissions.
End user – requires less energy to move the car, providing up to
5% savings in fuel consumption.
This makes the GT3 a true environmentally friendly tire.
In addition, Goodyear´s 3D-BIS technology in the centre rib blocks
delivers new benchmarks in wet traction and braking.
