Main innovations:

Durable Control & Comfort concept Durable safety, driving comfort, and fuel efficiency. The new solutions for tread models, rubber compound, and structure create stable, balanced handling in any weather.
The Nokian Hakka Van tread model ensures calm and stable, passenger car-like steering feel even at higher speeds, during sudden evasions, and while changing lanes. The various shapes and sizes of the sipes, or grooves, do their part to ensure good wet grip and driving comfort.
The Hakka Van Hybrid tread compound ensures exceptional wet grip, allowing the Hakka Van to stop quickly even on rain-slick roads. Fine-tuned for demanding conditions, the tread compound adjusts to temperature variations, tolerates hard wear, and further guarantees fuel-efficient operation. Strong and sturdy structure. The dual body structure and sturdy steel belt package improve durability and allow the tire to retain its state-of-the-art characteristics as the kilometers add up. Aramid-reinforced sidewalls. Unique protection against impacts, potholes, and cuts. The core of the Aramid Sidewall Technology is the Aramid fiber included in the sidewall compound. The same material is utilized by the aerospace and defense industries. The aramid fiber stiffens and reinforces the sidewall to even better withstand external impacts and cuts, and it may even prevent tire damage completely. Stone Ejectors. More safety, better durability. Stone Ejectors in the groove roots prevent sharp stones from attaching to the tire’s tread surface and penetrating the tire structure. The stone ejectors improve the tire’s service life and offer additional protection by preventing tire body damage. The Driving Safety Indicator makes it easier to monitor the tread depth. The numbers on the indicator allow you to check the remaining tread in millimeters. The numbers fade out, one at a time, as the tire wears down. The aquaplaning indicator warns against an increased risk for aquaplaning. The water drop symbol disappears when less than 4 mm of tread depth remains.
