INDIANAPOLIS—Goodyear Tire & Rubber recently introduced two tires to its RangeMax line: the RangeMax RSA ULT and the RangeMax RTD ULT. 

The latest Goodyear RangeMax tires are designed for electric and gas- or diesel-powered regional work vehicles. The steer-drive combo offers Goodyear’s best regional pickup and delivery tires for traction, range, and mileage, regardless of the vehicle’s drivetrain. 

In response to growing demand trends within the regional delivery segment and cost savings and sustainability goals for fleets, the all-position RangeMax RSA ULT and RangeMax RTD ULT tires help deliver range efficiency through low rolling resistance and long miles to removal. 

“As the unique range, durability, and versatility needs of regional pickup and delivery fleets evolve, we’re constantly listening to our fleet partners to design superior tires for every application,” said Rich Cottrell, senior director of commercial marketing, Goodyear North America. “Our latest RangeMax tires combine low rolling resistance with enhanced features like premium casings and long-lasting tread compounds to help increase vehicle uptime and protect fleets’ investment.”
