Hankook Tops Auto Bild's 2026 Tyre Manufacturer Ranking

2026-08-12

 

Hankook has reinforced its reputation as a leading global tyre manufacturer after being ranked No. 1 in Auto Bild's Top Manufacturer Summer 2026, an achievement driven by outstanding product performance across one of industry’s most authoritative vehicle and tyre evaluations.

What drove Hankook’s winning performance?
Led by Hankook's flagship Ventus summer tyre line, the recognition followed a string of stellar results, most notably from Ventus Evo, which secured two Test Winner titles to make Hankook the only manufacturer with a double victory across separate independent summer tyre tests.

 

 

Why does Auto Bild’s recognition matter?
Topping Auto Bild's latest manufacturer rankings not only earned Hankook acknowledgement from one of Europe's most respected automotive publications, but also validated its standing among the 16 global tyre brands evaluated in comprehensive assessments over the past year.

What does this achievement mean for Hankook?
Hankook's accomplishments in Auto Bild's 2026 evaluations represent the culmination of its continuous commitment to innovation and excellence, reflecting the strength of its advanced R&D capabilities in consistently delivering proven tyre performance trusted around the world.
