A Look at the Yokohama ADVAN dB V553

The standout feature of the new ADVAN dB V553 is the tyre's noise levels.

Yokohama has managed to achieve a remarkable reduction in noise levels through innovative design and new technology.

Initial claims are that the new tyre offers up to 15% noise reduction in noise levels when new. With an impressive 22% reduction over the lifespan of the tyre. 

Performance and Efficiency

Alongside the noise ratings, the performance of the ADVAN dB V553 has received much attention.

The first label ratings show excellent ratings on fuel efficiency and an 'A' grade for wet performance across all sizes. 

Comparison with ADVAN dB V552

The predecessor, ADVAN dB V552, set a high bar for comfort and quietness.

Despite the strengths, feedback pointed to a need for improved stability when driving at high speeds. Plus better grip in wet weather conditions.

The ADVAN dB V553 addresses these points, incorporating a new tread pattern which helps to maintain the quiet noise levels of the V552, but also improving on the tyre's overall performance.

The ADVAN dB V553 comes with Yokohama's propriety mark for EV - 'E+'. This symbolises that it is positioned well to meet these emerging trends.

Market Impact and Consumer Expectations

The Yokohama Advan dB V553 represents a blend of innovation, performance, and sustainability. 
As such, the introduction of the ADVAN dB V553 is hoping to set new benchmarks in the tyre market.
