What brand is Turanza?
1 Answers
Turanza is a tire series under the Bridgestone brand, which is the actual trademark. Bridgestone is one of Japan's largest tire manufacturers and also ranks among the world's top tire producers. Chinese consumers particularly value its wear resistance, while its other performance aspects remain well-balanced, with different product series emphasizing various features. The TURANZA Comfort series focuses on delivering a smooth driving experience, incorporating Bridgestone's leading technologies such as the NanoPro-Tech polymer tread compound, Full Contact Patch (FCP) shoulder design, and noise-reducing groove patterns. With excellent comprehensive performance, this series has been selected as standard equipment by globally renowned premium electric vehicle models. Tires are among the most critical components of a vehicle, bearing the entire weight of the car, transmitting traction and braking torque, ensuring road grip, and absorbing shocks and impacts during driving. Bridgestone passenger car tires can be categorized into four series based on performance: high-performance, economical, sporty (off-road/SUV), and comfort (highway). The TURANZA series belongs to the comfort category, emphasizing a balance between handling and comfort. The main models in the TURANZA comfort series available in the market are the TURANZA T001 and TURANZA AR10. The TURANZA T001 comes in 16-inch and 17-inch sizes, while the TURANZA AR10 is available in 15-inch and 16-inch sizes, suitable for compact and mid-to-large-sized vehicles. The T001 maximizes quiet performance, with excellent grip and wet braking performance, ensuring balanced comfort and handling. Its wear resistance is also guaranteed. The AR10 features a new 3D tread pattern and variable-angle circumferential grooves, ensuring stable wet and dry road handling performance. Bridgestone tires are often used in complex and demanding conditions, enduring various deformations, loads, forces, and extreme temperatures during operation. Therefore, they must possess high load-bearing capacity, traction, and cushioning performance, along with excellent wear resistance and flex resistance, while maintaining low rolling resistance and heat generation. Directly in contact with the road, they work with the vehicle's suspension to absorb shocks, ensuring a comfortable ride and smooth driving. They also enhance the vehicle's traction, braking, and off-road capability while bearing the car's weight. Bridgestone tire maintenance tips: Increase awareness of tire safety and inspect tires regularly. Periodically correct wheel balance to avoid high-frequency vibrations at high speeds, which can cause uneven tire wear. Rotate tires regularly. To ensure even wear, rotate tires every 5,000 kilometers. In daily use, pay attention to the following: Regularly check the tire surface for cracks or deformations. As tires wear, the tread depth gradually decreases. Worn-out treads lose their water drainage and anti-slip functions, significantly reducing vehicle performance. Small cracks can also pose a risk of blowouts at high speeds. Additionally, promptly remove stones stuck in the grooves. Park on flat surfaces whenever possible. Avoid parking on roads with thick, sharp, or pointed stones. Keep the vehicle away from oil products, acids, or other materials that may degrade rubber. After parking, avoid turning the steering wheel, as this accelerates tire wear. Avoid splashing water to cool tires. In hot weather or during high-speed driving, tires can overheat, increasing air pressure. Park to let them cool naturally; never release air or splash water, as this can cause abnormal aging of the tread rubber. Avoid sudden braking. Minimize frequent or hard braking to prevent accelerated tread wear due to dragging on the road.
