Designed for the expanding light commercial vehicle market, the new Hankook Tire Global Vantra Transit offers higher mileage, enhanced safety, and improved fuel efficiency. It is now available in 32 sizes.

Premium tyre manufacturer Hankook is extending its offering for light commercial vehicles with the new Vantra Transit. Specially designed for transporters and small vans, this summer tyre offers high mileage and reliable safety. It also features low rolling resistance for better performance and efficiency.

This new tyre development is Hankook’s response to the growing demand for commercial vehicles with a gross vehicle weight of up to 7.5 metric tons. These are primarily used for delivery purposes. This segment experienced a 15% growth rate throughout Europe in 2024.

The Vantra Transit combines innovative technologies with robust construction. Its optimised tread design and wider tread reduce wear and increase mileage by up to 18% compared with its predecessor. In comparison, the innovative tread compound reduces rolling resistance by 15%. This is compared with conventional tyres in the light commercial vehicle segment, saving commercial clients’ money on tyre changes and fuel.
