ENLITEN TIRE TECHNOLOGY
Innovative lightweight tire technology that requires less materials and cuts CO2 emissions.
BRIDGESTONE’S NEW ENVIRONMENTAL TIRE SOLUTION
Enliten, a new innovative lightweight tire technology that represents an unmatchable reduction in material and rolling resistance performance to contribute to the reduction of a vehicle’s CO2 emissions, while providing the same wear life as a standard original equipment tire. Benefitting car manufacturers, drivers and the environment, tires with embedded Enliten technology also improve the vehicle’s handling and stability to increase driving pleasure.
SUSTAINABLE, & EFFICIENT
Enliten technology reduces the rolling resistance of a passenger tire, reducing fuel consumption and CO2 emissions in combustion vehicles, while also extending battery life and vehicle range in electric vehicles.
Enliten enables passenger tires to be reduced in weight. This not only ensures that less raw materials are used to manufacture the tires, but also contributes to the reduced rolling resistance.
Without any trade-off on tire wear or safety., the technology even improves the vehicle’s handling and stability to increase driving pleasure.
TIRE DESIGN AND PRODUCTION
An innovative approach to tire design and production which combines a proprietary compound mix that enables improved wear performance and a decreased tread depth, a reduced and reinforced inner liner thickness, and a new dedicated mould design concept.
