The Yokohama Rubber Co., Ltd., announced today that it is supplying its ADVAN V61 tires to Lexus for use as original equipment (OE) tires on the fifth-generation RX. The luxury SUV has undergone a complete renewal, pursuing the Lexus Driving Signature performance and next-generation Lexus design. Launched in Japan and overseas, including Europe, from this November, the new RX is being fitted with 235/60R19 103V size ADVAN V61 tires.
The ADVAN V61 is a high-performance tire under the ADVAN brand, Yokohama Rubber’s ultimate tire brand. The ADVAN V61 tires being installed on the RX feature a specially designed structure that delivers the comfortable ride and stable handling befitting a luxury SUV such as the RX. The tire also features a highly rigid cover material that contributes to an exceptionally quiet ride and a compound that reduces the tire’s heat generation and enhances its environmental performance.
Under Yokohama Rubber’s three-year (2021–2023) medium-term management plan, Yokohama Transformation 2023 (YX2023), the consumer tire business aims to maximize the sales ratios of high-value-added YOKOHAMA tires. One of the key initiatives under this strategy is expanding sales of ADVAN and GEOLANDAR tires as original equipment on new cars.
