Dunlop Selected As OE Tyre Supplier For New Toyota C-HR+ BEV

Dunlop Selected As OE Tyre Supplier For New Toyota C-HR+ BEV

Dunlop (company name: Sumitomo Rubber Industries, Ltd.) has commenced supply of its Dunlop SP SPORT MAXX 060 and e. SPORT MAXX tyres as original equipment for Toyota Motor Corporation’s new C-HR+, an all-electric vehicle launched in Europe in December 2025. This BEV model combines a stylish design with an expansive cabin and achieves a greater driving range than previous versions through enhancements including modified battery cells.

The supplied tyres contribute directly to this improved range by utilising a new tread rubber compound that lowers rolling resistance. They also provide a quieter ride, a benefit of their optimised tread pattern design. In addition to delivering strong steering stability and wet grip performance, the tyres feature the proprietary Nano Black technology. This technique produces a deeper, richer black on the sidewalls, enhancing the visibility of the Dunlop branding and lending a more premium aesthetic to the vehicle.

Mitsubishi Delica D:5 To Run On Yokohama GEOLANDAR SUV Tyres

The Yokohama Rubber Co., Ltd. has expanded its established partnership with Mitsubishi Motors Corporation through the selection of its GEOLANDAR SUV tyre as original equipment for the newly launched 2026 Delica D:5 minivan. This latest generation of the vehicle, which debuted in Japan in January, features the tyre in size 255/55R18 98H. The collaboration builds upon a proven history, as the GEOLANDAR SUV was also fitted to the previous Delica D:5 model. For this new application, Yokohama engineers focused on refining the tyre’s performance, achieving enhancements in fuel economy and a reduction in external noise compared to the already well-regarded predecessor.

The GEOLANDAR SUV line is engineered primarily for modern minivans and on-road-focused SUVs, balancing the demand for everyday comfort and safety with versatile utility across diverse surfaces. Yokohama’s relationship with Mitsubishi extends beyond this single model, with the GEOLANDAR brand appearing on several vehicles in the automaker’s portfolio. Notably, the GEOLANDAR G94 model has been supplied in recent years for the Triton and Pajero Sport, underscoring a continued mutual confidence between the two companies.

This tyre supply agreement aligns with the comprehensive updates characterising the new Delica D:5. Mitsubishi has introduced refreshed exterior and interior styling while incorporating sophisticated all-wheel control technology and advanced driver-assistance systems. These improvements collectively elevate the distinctive dynamic character and driving capabilities for which the model is known, with Yokohama’s tyres contributing directly to its on-road performance and efficiency.

For the Japanese market Solterra, the company continues to provide the ADVAN V61 model. This new GEOLANDAR X-CV is engineered as a modern highway terrain tyre that meets the M+S standard, emphasising high-speed capability and drivability alongside a balanced performance in safety, comfort, durability and fuel efficiency.

Developed through Yokohama’s AI-powered HAICoLab framework, which blends human creativity with artificial intelligence for advanced data processing, the tyre incorporates specific technologies for electric vehicles. This is signified by an ‘E+’ mark on the sidewall, indicating enhancements in durability, quietness and energy efficiency tailored to electrified vehicles.

This supply agreement aligns with the strategic goals outlined in Yokohama Transformation 2026, the company’s medium-term management plan running through 2026. A core initiative of this strategy is to increase the proportion of high-value-added tyre sales by expanding original equipment placement for key global brands. This includes actively promoting both the flagship ADVAN line and the GEOLANDAR series for SUVs and pickup trucks on new vehicles worldwide.
