YOKOHAMA LAUNCHES ITS NEW CV 4S HOMOLOGATED TIRE
By Éric Descarries
Japanese manufacturer Yokohama has added a new product to its Geolandar range: the Geolandar CV 4S, a tire certified for both winter and summer use. According to the brand, this tire has been created specifically for the most popular CUVs, light SUVs and pickups currently on the market. Identified as “deep snow capable,” it is initially offered in 32 sizes, for rims ranging from 17 to 20 inches. Other sizes will be produced in 2024.
The manufacturer also points out that winter grip is ensured by the asymmetrical tread design, which is equally effective on dry pavement, while wet performance is provided by zigzag grooves that prevent aquaplaning. An innovative rubber technology developed by Yokohama includes new polymers and improved microsilica dispersion for a better way to reduce rolling resistance while contributing to greater durability. Finally, the tire’s tread pattern ensures a quiet ride in all conditions.
