Bridgestone showcases fuel-efficient Ecopia EP100

Bridgestone Corporation’s new Ecopia EP100 tire for passenger cars comes in sizes 195/55R16, 185/65R15 and 195/65R15, with plans to expand range in the future. The Ecopia EP100 employs the Ecopia compound (a new top rubber) which applies Bridgestone’s materials technology NanoPro-Tech*2 to reduce rolling resistance. The Ecopia EP100’s rolling resistance is cut down 30 per cent, as a result the tire boasts the least rolling resistance of any

Bridgestone tire on the domestic market. In addition, the tread pattern has rib-linked blocks and high-angle lugs for outstanding braking performance in wet conditions at a level equivalent to the B’Style EX.
