Nokian develops new all season tire for North America

Nokia, Finland – Nokian Tyres is introducing a new generation of its Premium All Season tires eNTYRE 2.0 specifically designed for North America.

The eNTYRE 2.0, the successor to the eNTYRE, uses an inside/outside tread pattern, new groove designs, a modern silica compound, and noise-dampening technologies to improve dry road handling, aquaplaning properties, and wet grip without compromising winter grip.

The tire, according to Nokian, has impressive low rolling resistance to save fuel and reduce carbon emissions.

Nokian has used its new “high modulus tread compound” and “comfort base compound” working together to deliver a smooth and sporty ride.

A new silica in the high modulus tread compound uses an expanding molecular structure of the silica and rubber compound to strengthen the stiffness of the tread pattern and boost the tire’s handling properties.

The silica works ideally along a wide temperature range, improving wet grip from spring to autumn, according to the tire maker.

Underneath, the new comfort base compound provides comfort on bumps and road cracks. The compound also reduces heat build-up which improves the wear characteristics of the eNTYRE 2.0 and reduces fuel consumption.
