Yokohama BluEarth-XT AE61 (225/55R19 99V)

The Highway Refinement Specialist. Engineered for SUV Stability.

The AE61 is Yokohama’s dedicated solution for SUV owners who want a whisper-quiet cabin and fuel efficiency. It addresses the “wobble” often felt in high-riding vehicles by using a highly rigid tread structure.

✨ Key Performance Technologies

• 🔇 Ultra-Quiet Performance (68 dB)

  One of the quietest SUV tyres on the market. It uses a 5-pitch tread variation and Silent Edge Grooves to break up air resonance, making it ideal for the spacious, often echo-prone interiors of modern SUVs.

• 📐 Anti-Wobble Construction:

  SUVs have a higher center of gravity, leading to body roll.8 The AE61 features a Triple Center Rib and High-Rigidity Active Shoulders to provide a “planted” feel during high-speed highway cruising and stable lane changes.

• 🌧️ A.R.T. Mixing Technology:

  Yokohama’s Advanced Reaction Technology ensures silica is distributed more evenly at a molecular level. This results in an A-rating for Wet Grip, significantly shortening emergency braking distances in the rain.

• 📏 Mound Profile Design:

  To prevent “shoulder scrubbing” (uneven wear on the edges), the tyre has a slightly rounded mound profile.10 This ensures the contact pressure is distributed evenly, extending the life of the tyre.

• 🔋 Nano-Blend Compound:

  The rubber compound is designed to reduce internal friction and heat generation, which lowers rolling resistance (EU Class C). This helps maximize fuel economy for petrol cars and driving range for hybrids/EVs.

📊 EU Label Ratings

• Wet Grip: A (Top tier safety)

• Fuel Efficiency: C (Balanced efficiency for an SUV tyre)

• External Noise: A (68 dB – Exceptionally quiet)

The Yokohama AE61 is the premier choice for 2026 if your priority is a combination of safety and total cabin silence. It is an “on-road” specialist designed for city streets and motorways.
