Hankook tires says “expanding business in Europe”

Neu-Isenburg, Germany – Hankook Europe has announced that it is further expanding its truck tire business in Europe by “upgrading its range of light to medium duty truck tires with a special focus on its successful patterns AH11 (all position, medium haul) for the steer axle and DH05+ (Drive Axle, Medium Haul) for the drive axle.”

In a press release on 13 Nov, Hankook said that its engineers focused on optimising the tire performance including a significant reduction in rolling resistance combined with good handling, high wet braking abilities and long-lasting durability.

The tire patterns are expected to be fitted to several Mercedes-Benz Atego Euro VI models in sizes 215/75R17.5, 235/75R17.5, 265/70R19.5 and 285/70R19.5 depending on the vehicle specification.
