The Yokohama Rubber Co., Ltd., recently announced that its BluEarth 711L tires have been selected as original equipment (OE) for the Super Great heavy duty truck. The sales of the Super Great were started in Japan from December 2023 with a full model change, by Mitsubishi Fuso Truck and Bus Corporation. The tire sizes are 245/70R19.5 136/134J and 275/80R22.5 151/148J.

This will contribute to the reduction of customers’ transportation costs, especially for customers who drive on highways a lot of the time. Moreover, apart from realizing superior wear resistance, the tires have a high-level balance of uneven-wear resistance, wet performance, snow performance and quietness.

Under Yokohama Rubber’s three-year (2024–2026) medium-term management plan, Yokohama Transformation 2026 (YX2026), the company positions commercial tires as a business that is expected to grow significantly in the future. To strengthen its position in the commercial tire market, Yokohama Rubber is endeavoring to enhance its tires’ technological capabilities and raise its brand value by promoting the use of its tires as original equipment on new vehicles that demand the highest tire technologies.
