Bridgestone Tyre Sales (Malaysia) Sdn Bhd, the people who market and sell Bridgestone Tyres here in Malaysia are extremely pleased to announce that the Bridgestone ECOPIA EP150 tyre is the tyre fitted to the 2018 Perodua Myvi 1.3liter variant. The Ecopia tyre is a tyre that has been engineered by the people at Bridgestone to be for the cost conscious and eco-conscious driver in mind. It can save the whales and at the same time, save some money too. 

So we now know what tyre the All-new Perodua Myvi 1.3 uses courtesy of Bridgestone. The ECOPIA EP150  utilizes unique compounds and lots of new fangled technology in tread design to ensure that this tyre has a good balance between fuel efficiency, safety and durability. Brisgestone claims that the EP150 has low rolling resistance that reduces the production of harmful carbon dioxide emissions. Every little bit helps in making the world a cleaner place. 

Being an Energy Efficient Vehicle under Malaysian standards, the All-New Perodua Myvi satisfies EEV standards in compliance with Euro 4 regulations. The Myvi has a new “Eco Idle”system, an aerodynamic designed body and overall technological improvements provide a cleaner and more economical drive. The new EEV engines are efficient, have low noise and vibration levels which contribute to a comfortable driving experience with high fuel efficiency. Of course, it needs proper, fuel efficient tyres too so this is the reason a eco-friendly tyre like the ECOPIA EP150 was chosen by Perodua for the Myvi 1.3. Everything has to work well with each other from the engine, transmission, chassis, aerodynamics and the tyres.

Oh, do note that the 1.5liter uses a different make of tyre and size (185/55 15 Inch). Anyway, here are the specs of the tyre for your added knowledge.
