Dunlop tyres for first all-electric Lexus

Sumitomo Rubber Industries has confirmed that it has begun supplying its Dunlop Enasave EC300+ tyres to Lexus for OE fitment on its first electric vehicle model, the UX300e.

The Dunlop Enasave EC300+ incorporates the advanced fuel-efficient tyre technologies Sumitomo has developed over the years for its Enasave Series, applying these in order to help fulfill the electric mileage performance requirements of the UX300e.

At the same time, the tyre maker says the Enasave EC300+ also contributes to further improvements in quiet and riding comfort thanks to the adoption of its proprietary tread compounding technology.
