Nokian introduces two new SUV tyres

Two new SUV tyres have joined the Nokian Tyres summer tyre range, the Line SUV and the zLine SUV.

The Nokian Line SUV is designed for small and mid-size SUVs, and Nokian Tyres says it is the “correct choice for drivers who value safe driving but also want to enjoy the power of their SUVs on rough roads and in urban traffic alike.” The tyre features aramid reinforced sidewalls to protect against damage, and the manufacturer also reports “pleasant comfort, high performance and firm wet grip,” along with very low rolling resistance. A total of 32 tyres are available for 15 to 19-inch rim diameter and T, H and V speed ratings.

As for the second of the pair, Nokian Tyres claims the zLine SUV is the result of “nearly four years of careful development” and reports the key features that separate it from previous generation tyres as being its “unique durability and handling properties.” The Finnish manufacturer states that the Nokian zLine SUV “steers logically, quickly, and responsively at high speeds.” Drivers can therefore “unleash the full potential of their powerful SUVs,” the tyre maker adds. The zLine SUV is designed for the largest SUVs on European roads. The range of 25 tyre sizes covers 17 to 22 inches and V, W and Y speed ratings.

“More durability, state-of-the-art handling, and the best possible safety for rain-slick roads vote for this premium tyre,” comments Juha Pirhonen, product development manager at Nokian Tyres. “Drivers who want to enjoy the power of their SUVs will value durability in addition to a precise and comfortable driving feel.”
