This tire becomes the reference in the environmental category. In addition to an A grade for Rolling Resistance, it also has a B grade for wet performance, the highest grade of any environmental tire available today. The noise level of 68dB also puts it into the quietest category for this size.
Available in 195/65 R15 91H, Nanoenergy 1 is the new leader of the environmental pack.

A high comfort tire with solid environmental credentials.
Nanoenergy 2 also boasts a A grade for rolling resistance putting it in the top class for environmental performance. With a C grade for wet performance, safety is also assured. The exceptional ride comfort is complemented by a 70dB noise level for all sizes.
Available in 11 sizes from 15 inch to 17 inch and H to W speed ratings, Nanoenergy 2 offers safe and comfortable driving with the lowest fuel consumption.
NanoEnergy tires have been developed using Toyo Tires’ proprietary Nano Balance Technology. The Nano Balance Philosophy encompasses four stages, Research, Analysis, Design and Production. The effect of this has been to develop new and innovative materials and processes to deliver better products as can be seen in the Nanoenergy tires launched today.
