The Yokohama Rubber Co., Ltd., have announced that it has begun supplying its ADVAN Sport EV tyres as original equipment for the new Lynk & Co Z10 sedan launched by Lynk & Co, a joint venture between China’s Geely Auto Group and Sweden’s Volvo Car Group, in China in September 2024. The tyre size is 245/50R19 105W.
The ADVAN Sport EV is an ultra-high performance summer tyre for premium EVs. Based on Yokohama Rubber’s ADVAN Sport V107 tyre for high-performance cars, the ADVAN Sport EV was developed to meet the needs of premium EV owners. By using a compound proven to reduce tyre rolling resistance and a tread pattern that enhances drainage, Yokohama has achieved a level of low electricity consumption and wet performance appropriate for premium EVs. The sidewall of the ADVAN Sport EV bears Yokohama’s proprietary “E+” mark to indicate that it has special qualities suitable for electric vehicles.
The Lynk & Co Z10 premium smart sedan is Lynk & Co’s first battery electric vehicle. It boasts a maximum range of over 800 km and supports rapid charging that extends the range by 573 km in just about 15 minutes. Through the use of advanced technology and expert tuning skills, the Lynk & Co Z10 also delivers exceptional acceleration and safety, achieving a high-level balance between driving pleasure and passenger comfort.
