Linglong Tire expands its Linglong Master product family and presents the new Linglong Dura Master Van for light commercial vehicles. The tyre was specially designed for light trucks, vans and motorhomes and impresses with its high mileage, low rolling resistance and optimised driving characteristics. The Dura Master Van e has been developed for original equipment customers, which has been adapted to the special requirements and specifications of the automotive industry.
The Dura Master Van combines the latest technologies with a new, robust construction. Its optimised tread design and wider tread ensure less wear and significantly higher mileage compared to its two predecessors, the Linglong Green-Max Van and Green-Max Van HP. A new and innovative tread compound has optimised rolling resistance, which leads to significant cost savings, a decisive purchase motive, especially for commercial customers. The reinforced carcass structure ensures a high load capacity, especially important for fully loaded vehicles. Thanks to a new sipe technology integrated into the tread pattern in combination with the optimised silica tread compound, the braking distance in wet conditions has been reduced and at the same time the handling characteristics in wet and dry conditions have been improved.
“With the Linglong Dura Master Van, we are expanding our range in the light commercial vehicle sector and offering a high-performance solution for businesses as well as private households,” says Wencheng Liu, Head of Product Management at Linglong Tire. “The tyre combines high mileage with safety and efficiency – crucial factors for cost-conscious families and entrepreneurs who use their vehicles every day.”
The Dura Master Van and Dura Master Van e will be built exclusively at Linglong’s state-of-the-art tyre factory in Zrenjanin, Serbia, and is available as of now. A total of 29 Dura Master Van sizes from 12 to 17 inches are available, which will be delivered from spring 2026 and will then be available in stores. The Dura Master Van e original equipment tire is offered in two 16-inch sizes and is delivered directly to the OEMs after approval by the respective manufacturers.
The Dura Master Van and the Dura Master Van e were developed by the European Development Center in Hanover. The test drives took place on the European test track in Idiada (Spain) and on the Group’s own Sino Asia test site in China.
The new Linglong all-season tread pattern for vans, the Linglong Dura Master Van 4S, will complement the Linglong van tire portfolio in fall 2026.
