The Duravis All Season EVO completes Bridgestone’s line-up of van tyres, joining the Duravis Van summer and winter tyres. Developed using Bridgestone’s proprietary ENLITEN Technology, this EV-ready tyre delivers a 15% improvement in mileage and a 15% reduction in rolling resistance, compared to its predecessor. These enhancements position the Duravis All Season EVO as a highly efficient choice for both fuel and energy savings, making it well-suited to both traditional combustion and electric vehicles.
The new Duravis All Season EVO is fully winter-ready, with both the three-peak mountain snowflake (3PMSF) and M+S markings, indicating compliance with severe snow conditions. The tyre achieves an A-grade in EU wet grip ratings, reflecting its best-in-class grip on wet roads. These advancements are enabled by innovative features like high-volume slots in the shoulder for optimal water evacuation and a V-shaped tread pattern for improved snow traction.
“The Duravis All Season EVO is here to deliver year-round confidence to drivers and fleet operators as they face inevitable daily driving challenges,” stated Stefano Sanchini, Vice President Consumer Replacement at Bridgestone EMEA. “Van users and fleets are demanding durability, robustness and year-round performance from their tyres. Our latest van tyre is engineered to provide exactly that – minimising downtime and reducing costs to keep fleets going safely across the seasons with a single set of tyres.”
Fleet operators will benefit from the tyre’s durability and optimised TCO thanks to Bridgestone’s ENLITEN Technology, which introduces a specific polymer for improved abrasion resistance and pattern stiffness. Together, these features enhance wear performance, helping extend the tyre’s mileage and contribute to a longer tyre life. The energy efficiency gains, made possible by a polymer that minimises energy loss and a sidewall protector rib to reduce impact from curbs, further lower operating costs for fleets and van operators.
With all-season tyres growing rapidly in popularity among light commercial vehicles, the Duravis All Season EVO addresses a key demand for dependable, year-round tyre performance. Developed in Europe and launching in January 2025, the new tyre will be available in 24 sizes ranging from 15” to 17”, including six high-load 10PR sizes.
The Bridgestone Duravis All Season EVO is not only EV-ready but also represents a significant advance in sustainable and high-performance mobility solutions, supporting fleets that require versatile, all-weather capability with lower costs and dependable safety across seasons.
