Firestone Vanhawk Multiseason is the first VAN all-season tire designed for the European market that appeared in the range of this Bridgestone subsidiary. It is positioned as the perfect choice for the owners of small to midsize light-truck and van fleets who are looking to maximize the efficiency of their business operations. The Firestone Vanhawk Multiseason was presented in 2020 simultaneously with the commercial model Duravis All Season manufactured under the brand of Bridgestone. The new tire model of the popular Vanhawk line is characterized by a good price/quality ratio, and ensures reliable grip on dry and wet pavement, as well as on light snow, combined with high fuel efficiency and long tread life.

The well-balanced stiffness of the tread elements ensures dependable dry performance by Vanhawk Multiseason along with long expected mileage. The Z-shaped drainage grooves in the central section of the tread, combined with numerous 3D lamellas, increase the edge effect, thus improving the tire’s grip on snow. In addition, they serve to reduce rolling resistance, which helps to cut down the fuel consumption by the vehicle. The Firestone Vanhawk Multiseason is safe to drive on in mild winter climatic conditions, which is evidenced by the three peak mountain snowflake sign on the tire’s sidewall. It is noted that in order to increase the tire’s grip on snow and wet pavement, the manufacturer used a new rubber compound, as well as a new mixing technology. The improvement in the Vanhawk Multiseason performance was also ensured by the improvement of silica dispersion due to the use of the patented NanoPro-Tech technology, which makes it possible to control the behavior of rubber mixture components on a molecular level. The wet traction ensured by Firestone Vanhawk Multiseason places the tire in Class B of the European tire label. Such impressive performance has to do with the symmetric tread pattern that features wide circumferential grooves for quick evacuation of water from the contact area.
