Hankook Receives OE Green Light for Extended European VW Supply
The Volkswagen T5 van, produced at the company’s factory in Hannover, Germany, has the distinction of being fitted with the first tyres delivered to a European manufacturer directly from Hankook Tire’s plant in Rácalmás, Hungary. Supply of the Hankook Radial RA 28 in sizes 205/65 R 16 C and 215/65 R 16 C began following a Volkswagen audit held a year ago. A new audit of the Rácalmás facility has now been conducted, and Hankook has received an ‘A’ certification, the highest rating available.
