<\/p>\nHankook is extending its offering for light commercial vehicles with the new Vantra Transit. Specially designed for transporters and small vans, the stand-out features of this summer tyre are high mileage, reliable safety and low rolling resistance.<\/p>\n
Hankook says this new tyre development is the company\u2019s response to the increasing use of commercial vehicles with a gross vehicle weight of up to seven and a half metric tons for delivery purposes, a segment which grew by 15 per cent throughout Europe in 2024.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
According to Hankook, the Vantra Transit combines innovative technologies with a robust construction. Its optimised tread design and wider tread reduce wear and increase mileage by up to 18 per cent compared with its predecessor, while the innovative tread compound reduces rolling resistance by 15 per cent compared with conventional tyres in the light commercial vehicle segment, saving commercial clients money on tyre changes and fuel.<\/p>\n
In addition, the reinforced carcass structure enables a high load capacity \u2013 ideal for use on fully laden vehicles. Thanks to its deformation-resistant 3D GripControl sipes, the Vantra Transit is also said to cut braking distances by an impressive nine per cent and boosts stability on wet surfaces by 13 per cent.<\/p>\n
\u201cWith the Vantra Transit, we are expanding our range of light commercial vehicles and offering a high-performance solution for transport professionals,\u201d said Jongho Park, president and COO of Hankook Tire Europe.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe tyre combines high mileage with safety and efficiency \u2013 crucial factors for commercial customers who rely on their vehicles on a daily basis and keep a close eye on operating costs.\u201d<\/p>\n
The Hankook Vantra Transit is available now in 32 sizes from 13- to 17-inches.<\/p>\n
Along with the Vantra Transit, Hankook points to its other tyre solutions for transporters and vans, such as the Vantra LT and the Winter i*cept LV.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
