Performance Analysis

Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 6 - Official Image

Across 27 summer tests, the Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 6 shows consistently excellent all‑round performance with standout dynamics, value and wear. It secures multiple overall wins (Auto Bild 2025, AZ 2025, Auto Bild 2024 SUV, Auto Bild 2023 UHP, AMS 2022) and frequent top‑three finishes, underpinned by class‑leading dry/wet handling balance, low noise, and market‑leading wear/value results. Wet grip is usually strong (often top in wet handling/circle and competitive in braking), and dry performance is reliably near the front with occasional test wins in braking/handling. Comfort/noise and efficiency are generally favorable.
Weaknesses are limited but recurring: aquaplaning resistance tends to be mid‑pack to below average, and rolling resistance is seldom best‑in‑class. A few outliers (e.g., UTAC/Aftonbladet 2025, AE 2025) show middling wet braking/handling and subjective noise, but the broader pattern remains top‑tier.
