For drivers who appreciate new, pioneering solutions
The new Nokian eLine represents the technology of the future. Its greener nature suits pioneers who appreciate low fuel consumption and lower exhaust gas emissions. The safe, harmonious handling brings added peace of mind.
The fuel efficiency and wet grip of this unique summer tyre present the absolute best in the industry, it is ranked as class A on the new EU tyre label. Nokian eLine is aimed at smaller cars utilising hybrid technology, for example. It will be available to consumers in the spring of 2013.
Safety for wet roads
Many innovations in technology set the Nokian eLine apart from normal summer tyres. The moment of inertia of this pioneering tyre has been significantly reduced, making the tyre very responsive to steering movements. The moment of inertia resists steering, much in the way a spinning top resists falling over. The Nokian eLine is easy and quick to handle, even under surprising conditions.
The curved tread pattern and rigid belt structure of the Nokian eLine work together seamlessly to create a stable driving feel. When the accelerating slip that is caused by the tyres rolling at the point of contact has been minimised, wet grip can be improved and braking distance on wet, slippery roads can be made shorter.
Innovations make a green product
In the Nokian eLine, the traditional grooves on the outer shoulder have been replaced by sipes. The shape of the tread blocks is also different from the norm. The tread block was made shorter longitudinally and expanded laterally.
This means that the load of the Nokian eLine is distributed along a larger area, creating a minimum amount of deformation while driving, which in turn minimises rolling resistance. The cross-section is also straighter than in traditional tyre models, which further reduces rolling resistance.
The rubber compound, which is tailored for demanding use, emphasises the eco-friendly nature of the Nokian eLine. This fuel-efficient newcomer quickly reaches the planned operating temperature. The rolling resistance of this energy efficient tyre is low from the very first metres onwards.
The European Union has introduced the EU Tyre Label by Regulation (No. 1222/2009) identically and bindingly for all EU member states. It applies to passenger car tyres, light commercial vehicle tyres and heavy commercial vehicle tyres produced after 01.07.2012.
Three different areas are tested: rolling resistance, wet grip and the rolling noise the tyre makes on the road.
The following are not affected by the EU Tyre Label: retreaded tyres, professional off-road tyres, racing tyres, tyres with additional devices to improve traction such as spiked tyres, T-type emergency tyres, special tyres for fitting to vehicles first registered before 1 October 1990, tyres with a maximum authorised speed of 80 km/h, tyres for rims with a nominal diameter of 254 mm or less or 635 mm or more.
With this regulation, the European Union is pursuing the goal of promoting economic and ecological efficiency in road traffic as well as increasing road safety on the one hand, and on the other hand, granting consumers more product transparency and at the same time serving as an active decision-making aid.
Already during the incorporation, experts criticise the fact that the EU Tyre Label unfortunately only shows a few product characteristics. Apart from rolling resistance, wet grip and rolling noise, which are the main focus of EU tyre labelling, tyres have much more important and safety-relevant product characteristics, such as aquaplaning properties, driving stability, service life, braking properties on dry and wet roads, behaviour in wintry conditions, etc.
Tyre manufacturers point out that test results from various institutions and journals remain an important information medium for the end consumer. These tests usually focus on further safety-relevant product characteristics besides the EU standard qualifications for tyre labelling, which are always important for the final customer.
