Linglong to become first Chinese global Top 10 car tyre manufacturer by 2019 – analyst

Wang Feng, chairman of Linglong Tire, signs its partnership agreement with Juventus FC co-chief revenue officer, head of global partnerships and corporate revenues, Giorgio Ricci

New research by London based independent research company Astutus Research suggests that a domestic Chinese company could be about to join the top 10 global manufacturers of passenger car and light truck (PCLT) tyres. Linglong Tyre, currently ranked 12th globally in the segment by unit sales, is forecast to take tenth place by 2019, replacing South Korea’s Kumho Tyre. The move would make the manufacturer the first from China to enter the PCLT top 10.
