Sava Eskimo HP2 is a directional studless winter tire, designed to be fitted on medium-class passenger cars. According to the manufacturer, this model is characterized by superior traction and stable handling response, as well as efficient wet and snow braking.

Manufactured by a Goodyear subsidiary, the passenger-car tire Sava Eskimo HP2 was put into production in 2016. Compared to its predecessor, the 2010 model Eskimo HP, the second-generation High Performance tire is characterized by better snow and ice traction, which helps to ensure maximum control of the vehicle in winter conditions. The Sava Eskimo HP2 ensures more effective handling response on snow and ice-covered roads due to the improved tread pattern. The central section of the directional tread features hook-shaped tread blocks , which, due to a large number of sipes in them, improve both acceleration and handling on snow-covered roads.

Secondly, the multi-radius tire contour generates a long and wide footprint with even pressure distribution between tire and road. This not only provides an outstanding road contact patch on icy and slippery roads, but also ensures even wear, hence, longer tread life. Sava’s engineers also focused on improving the overall handling. The outside blocks were reinforced. More robust blocks increase force transfer capability and provide exceptional dry handling and braking.

Furthermore, the circumferential grooves have been optimally placed, so as to absorb and disperse water and slush rapidly out of the tire tread. This feature provides excellent contact on wet roads.

Sava Eskimo HP2 is a European-quality tire, driven by the Goodyear technologies.
