[Asia Economy Reporter Ki-min Lee] Hankook Tire & Technology announced on the 22nd that it will supply the 'Ventus S1 evo3' tires as original equipment tires for Porsche's representative high-performance sports roadster, the 718 Boxster.

Hankook Tire began its partnership with Porsche by supplying original equipment tires for the crossover sport utility vehicle (SUV) model 'Macan.'

Hankook Tire explained that the Ventus S1 evo3 features driving stability, precise steering response, and dynamic handling performance. It incorporates a high-rigidity bead core, reinforced sidewalls, a lightweight rayon carcass, and belts made of aramid composite materials. Additionally, through a special compound, it provides excellent grip and braking performance on both dry and wet surfaces.

Meanwhile, Hankook Tire is expanding strategic partnerships with global premium brands such as Porsche, Mercedes-Benz, BMW, and Audi through technology secured by continuous research and development (R&D).
