Two TOYO TIRE products, an EV route bus tire and a tire for large 4-axle low-floor trucks, have won the 2026 Good Design Award. They received high marks for their dedicated designs tailored to vehicle characteristics and operating environments.
TOYO TIRE announced that its two products, the dedicated NANOENERGY M648 EV tire for EV route buses and the M630 all-weather tire for large 4-axle low-floor trucks, have won the 2026 Good Design Award. The recognition indicates that their designs and functionality, tailored to vehicle operating environments, were highly evaluated.
The NANOENERGY M648 EV uses a dedicated tread pattern that addresses wear and uneven wear caused by high torque and regenerative braking while also ensuring quiet operation. It achieves high levels of wear resistance and low energy consumption. The M630 improves wear resistance by increasing the shoulder block and tread widths to suppress uneven wear on the second front axle, while reducing the size of the center blocks to distribute contact pressure.
In its Medium-Term Management Plan '26, the company has identified strengthening its truck and bus tire business as a priority measure. It aims to improve operational efficiency and reduce environmental impact through product development based on actual conditions at logistics sites.
