Concept FUTURO-e
The body design of the Concept FUTURO-e is a fusion of coupe and SUV styles. Designed to be an SUV, the Concept FUTURO-e represents Maruti Suzuki’s view of the next-generation in automotive styling.

Accordingly, Yokohama Rubber developed a concept tire exclusively for the Concept FUTURO-e based on the concept of “a tire featuring a powerful and stylish design for the new generation of urban SUVs”.

By combining the large lug grooves typical of powerful SUVs with rib grooves associated with smooth running vehicles, Yokohama Rubber has created a design suitable for a new generation of urban SUVs.
