Toyo Tires has added a new tire, Versado CUV, to its range of luxury tires. Designed for the crossover vehicle segment, the Versado CUV combines comfort and a quiet operation with features that enhance handling, stability and fuel efficiency.
The tire incorporates Toyo Tires' proprietary Silent Wall™ technology, which utilizes thousands of vertical serrations along the walls of the circumferential tread grooves to significantly reduce “pipe resonance,” an annoying whistling audible to the human ear. An asymmetric, non-directional tread and multi-wave sipes also contribute to a smooth, quiet ride throughout the life of the tire.
A new low rolling-resistance compound also helps enhance the fuel efficiency. Additional benefits of this compound include wear resistance and all-season performance.
A computer-optimized casing and a large block and rib design deliver an improved distribution of tread pressure to the road surface for enhanced handling and stability. Four wide circumferential grooves evacuate water while open lateral slits improve water drainage. Multi-slant grooves enhance traction in inclement weather, making it an ideal choice for crossover vehicles.
The Versado CUV is available in 25 sizes to fit 17- through 20-inch diameter wheels. To know more, log on to toyotires.com.
