Hanover, April 27, 2026 – Linglong Tire is expanding its Linglong Master product family with the launch of the new Linglong Dura Master Van for light commercial vehicles, available now. Designed specifically for transporters, vans, and motorhomes, the tire offers high mileage, low rolling resistance, and optimized handling. For original equipment manufacturers, the Dura Master Van e has been developed to meet the specific requirements and standards of the automotive industry.
The Dura Master Van combines the latest technology with a new, robust construction. Its optimized tread design and wider footprint reduce wear and provide significantly higher mileage compared to its predecessors, the Linglong Green-Max Van and Green-Max Van HP. An innovative new tread compound optimizes rolling resistance, leading to significant cost savings—a key purchasing factor for commercial customers. The reinforced carcass structure ensures high load-bearing capacity, which is essential for fully loaded vehicles. Thanks to new siping technology integrated into the tread, combined with the optimized silica compound, braking distances on wet surfaces have been reduced while handling in both wet and dry conditions has been improved.
"With the Linglong Dura Master Van, we are expanding our light commercial vehicle range and offering a high-performance solution for both commercial and private users," says Wencheng Liu, Head of Product Management at Linglong Tire. "The tire combines high mileage with safety and efficiency—crucial factors for cost-conscious families and business owners who rely on their vehicles every day."
Both the Dura Master Van and the Dura Master Van e are manufactured exclusively at Linglong's state-of-the-art tire plant in Zrenjanin, Serbia, and will be available for order by the end of the year. A total of 29 Dura Master Van sizes will be available, ranging from 12 to 17 inches. The Dura Master Van e original equipment tire will be offered in two 16-inch sizes and delivered directly to OEM assembly lines following manufacturer approval.
The Dura Master Van and Dura Master Van e were developed at the European development center in Hanover. Test drives were conducted at the European proving ground in Idiada (Spain) as well as at the company's own Sino Asia test facility in China.
The new Linglong all-season tread for vans, the Linglong Dura Master Van 4S, will join the Linglong commercial tire portfolio in autumn 2026.
