LCGC car (Low Cost Green Car) is a vehicle segment whose demand is quite stable in the market even though the automotive market was sluggish. it, The automotive industry is starting to show positive growth thanks to the PPnBM discount policy of up to 100% for the vehicle below 1500 cc, and extended to vehicles 1500-2000 cc.
Although this rule does not apply to LCGC cars, A number of car dealers and distributors do not hesitate to apply special discounts for this car segment as if they are taking advantage of the same momentum. According to GAIKINDO records, LCGC car market share reaches 20% wholesale sales and 16.4% retail sales in the first quarter of the year 2021 (January-March).
LCGC cars have always had a stable interest because they suit the lifestyle of Indonesian people, and many are sought after as their first vehicle owner. This car saves operational costs starting from economical fuel use to easy maintenance. Besides that, LCGC also provides added value with its environmentally friendly specifications. However, Cars also need to be supported with appropriate components so that vehicle performance is more optimal.
At least, There are three reasons why eco-friendly tires from Hankook are suitable for LCGC vehicles so that drivers get a more environmentally friendly driving experience, safe and comfortable.
First, These tires have rolling resistance (rolling resistance) the low. This is useful for more efficient use of fuel consumption. Prinsip “eco” berfokus pada emisi yang keluar dari kendaraan. To get low rolling resistance and have good grip, Usually these tires are made from silica compounds.
Second, Eco tires are able to maintain driving comfort which is supported by increased stiffness and durability of the tire sidewalls. Besides that, to make driving more optimal, Eco tires are designed using strong single strand bead wire for uniformity and improved tire fitting. Eco tires tend to have longer tread wear so they can travel further than regular tires.
Third, Eco tires tend to have better handling and steering response. This is because the tire structure uses bead filler which has high stiffness. Besides that, Eco tires can help provide smoother transitions during sprints and cornering.
The components above are some of the technologies that Hankook Tire has, leading global tire manufacturer, which applies its advanced technology to the development of environmentally friendly tires through 'Kontrol Technology'. One of the innovations is the Kinergy Eco2 model which is available at all official Hankook Tire distributors in Indonesia.
