Essen, Germany -- Hankook Tire said it is presenting “trend-setting†tyre solutions and an exciting range of events at this year's Essen Motor Show, 25 Nov-4 Dec 2011.
The premium tyre maker will showcase the latest, technology-packed version of its Ultra-High-Performance tyre Ventus S1 Evo², as well as a downforce-generating tyre study for more performance as special product highlights. The close-to-production prototype named Ventus Aero features winglets on its side walls, which not only give the tyre a stylish look but also improve its performance, Hankook said in a 25 Nov news release.
On 25 Nov, next year's new and spectacular TUNE IT! SAFE! campaign car, as always in its typical police car design, will be revealed on the booth of the TUNE IT! SAFE! initiative, which is located right next to the Hankook booth. The popular campaign for safe and responsible tuning is supported by the German Federal Department of Traffic & Transport, the German Association of Automobile Tuners (VDAT) and for the seventh consecutive time by campaign founding partner Hankook.
Hankook will also welcome some of football team Borussia Dortmund's top players for an autograph signing session. Motorsport will also be prominently featured at the Hankook booth, the company said.
