Bridgestone has announced the launch of the new Firestone Vanhawk 2 Winter EVO, an electric vehicle-ready winter van tyre claiming longer mileage and improved fuel efficiency.<\/p>\n

The Firestone Vanhawk 2 Winter EVO applies Enliten Technology, Bridgestone\u2019s next generation technology platform designed to enable fleets to adopt one single tyre across internal combustion engine (ICE) and electric vehicles.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Replacing the Firestone Vanhawk 2 Winter, the new Firestone tyre is engineered to deliver durability to light van owners and drivers, with 10 per cent longer mileage than its predecessor.<\/p>\n

The tyre leverages an improved compound that provides optimised abrasion, alongside a crown design for wear energy uniformity inside the contact patch area to deliver longer mileage.<\/p>\n

Certified with 3PMSF and M+S markings, the Firestone Vanhawk 2 Winter EVO also ensures reliable traction and braking in snow conditions.<\/p>\n

Developed and tested in Italy, the new Firestone Vanhawk 2 Winter EVO with Enliten Technology will be available across all of Europe beginning in June 2025.<\/p>\n

The tyre will be available from 15- to 17-inch in an expanded range of 18 short sizes and 22 long sizes.<\/p>\n

These sizes include five 10 Ply Rating sizes to meet increasing demand from van owners and fleets to offset higher-cargo loads, as well as EV-light truck specific requirements.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
