Yokohama ECOS ES31 (215/55R17 93V)

Efficient. Quiet. Reliable Daily Performance.

The ECOS ES31 is engineered for drivers who prioritize fuel economy and a smooth ride over aggressive sports handling. It uses Yokohama’s “Nano-blend” technology to ensure that the tyre remains flexible for grip while staying “stiff” enough to reduce energy loss as it rolls.

✨ Key Performance Features

• Advanced Nano-Blend Compound:The rubber compound contains Orange Oil, a signature Yokohama technology. This natural oil makes the rubber more flexible at a microscopic level, allowing the tyre to better “key” into the road surface for improved grip without increasing fuel consumption.
• Fuel Efficiency focus:The ES31 is designed to minimize rolling resistance. By reducing the heat generated as the tyre deforms under the car’s weight, it helps your vehicle achieve more kilometers per liter (or more range for hybrids).
• Quiet Tread Design:Features a 5-pitch variation tread pattern. By varying the size of the tread blocks, the tyre breaks up the “harmonic” noise generated by the wind and road, leading to a significantly quieter cabin experience.
• Enhanced Wet Grip:Four wide longitudinal grooves work to evacuate water quickly from the contact patch. This provides reliable braking in the rain and helps maintain control during tropical downpours (common in regions like Singapore or Japan where this tyre is very popular).
• Even Wear Profile:The “Powerful Profile” design ensures that the contact pressure is distributed evenly across the tyre surface. This prevents “cupping” or uneven shoulder wear, extending the total life of the tyre.

📊 Typical Performance Ratings

• Wet Grip: C (Safe, dependable wet braking)

• Fuel Efficiency: C (Excellent for its price bracket)

• Noise: B

The Yokohama ECOS ES31 is the ideal choice for “commuter” cars like the Toyota Camry, Honda Accord, or VW Passat, where comfort and running costs are the main priorities.
