January Tyre of the Month - Bridgestone Ecopia Range
If one of your new year’s resolutions is to start looking after the contents of your wallet more closely – then our tyre of the month this January might be able to help you do just that.
We’ve chosen the Ecopia range of tyres from Bridgestone, this range is renowned for their fuel efficient designs. The Ecopia Range is designed to reduce your vehicles impact on your wallet as well as the environment, without compromising the level of quality expected from a Bridgestone tyre.
“Offering an excellent balance of safety, durability and economy, Ecopia tyres help you cut down on fuel consumption and carbon emissions while still enjoying the comfort and smooth handling you would expect from a premium Bridgestone tyre. Tread lightly but surely with Ecopia. Engineered with your safety in mind.” http://www.bridgestone.co.uk/auto/ranges/ecopia/overview/?rft=0
The Ecopia range is hardwearing meaning the tyres will last longer, making them excellent value for money. Bridgestone have enabled any car to become more fuel efficient with this range – allowing drivers to ‘go farther on less energy’.
The engineering of these tyres has been inspired by both the eco-conscious and cost-conscious driver. Low rolling resistance means the tyre minimizes wasted energy. More energy is returned back into the tyre instead of generating heat and using unnecessary fuel. As a result fuel consumption and carbon emissions are reduced. The Ecopia line is designed to enhance fuel economy, but at the same time, ensuring drivers aren’t missing out on all season performance and a smooth ride.
