The massive German sedan will be equipped with Bridgestone RE050 Ecopia tires.
As it can be understood from the name of the model Ecopia tires belong to the flagship ecological series of the company and provide not only outstanding performance on dry and wet surface but also reduced rolling resistance what in its turn decreases fuel consumption level. The Bridgestone’s aspiration for the reduction of the rolling resistance is based on the research of the Association of Japanese Rubber Manufacturers (JRMA) which shows that the 87,1% of the total CO2 exhaust that occurs during the whole tire “life” is connected with its direct use.
The Bridgestone company is sure that it will be able “to make considerable contribution to the solution of the problems connected with such ecological problems as global warming”. The first tires of Ecopia series – Ecopia EP100 – appeared on the market in April of 2008 and were intended for trucks and station vagons.
New contract for the delivery of Ecopia tires for hybrid Mercedes S-Class means that Bridgestone is intended to expand the application sphere of these tires and enhance its positions in the sector of original equipment. Bridgestone also continues to upgrade its eco-tires with the use of Nano-Pro Tech technology that allows to modify specific properties of the rubber and control its microstructure on molecular level.
By 2014 100% of summer tires by Bridgestone will have belonged to the ecological series.
