This year, the “Falken says tanks” promotional campaign is celebrating its 10th anniversary. This highlight is a welcome occasion for continuing the successful campaign with something special: the campaign is to continue into the new year, extending to January and February, in Germany.

With large in-person Christmas gatherings not possible this year, Falken Tyre Europe has planned a special surprise for its European employees

“All-round talent with good driving characteristics in all weather conditions, balanced steering behaviour and short snow braking distances”

Falken’s parent company, Sumitomo Rubber Industries (SRI) has begun proof of concept testing for its new tyre pressure management solution that enables the remote monitoring of tyre pressures and temperatures, which will be crucial for the safe operation of autonomous vehicles.

The digital marketing specialist Pixelgenau and we have been honoured with the German Design Award 2021 in the “Special Mention” category for the sales campaign “Falken says tanks”.

Falken is extending its cooperation with the two top clubs Borussia Mönchengladbach, Germany, and Atlético Madrid, Spain, this season.

"Convincing driving characteristics on snowy and wet slopes; quiet rolling noise" are strengths that the independent testers of AUTO BILD Sportcars magazine attested to the Falken EUROWINTER HS01 in its recent winter tyre test in issue 11/2020.

In the major all-season tyre test by AUTO BILD magazine, the Falken EUROALL SEASON AS210 was awarded the accolade of “exemplary”, coming in at fifth place in a total of 32 tested tyres, thereby securing its place among the top ten all-season tyres in the 205/55R16 size.

Once again Falken has proven the reliability of its performance tires and finished the toughest endurance race under the most difficult conditions: 10th and 11th place at the 48th ADAC TOTAL 24h-Race 2020 at Nürburgring.

This year, the ADAC TOTAL 24h race at the Nürburgring is taking place under special circumstances. For the first time in the almost 50-year history of the classic endurance event, it was necessary for the race to be postponed from its original timeslot in May to a new date. The waiting is now over: from 24th until 27th September, what may be the most unusual 24h race in history is set to take place

Having been awarded the accolade of recommended product in the latest tyre test by the Austrian Automobile, Motorcycle and Touring Club (ÖAMTC, in cooperation with ADAC and STC), the current Falken EUROWINTER HS01 is one of the most solid winter tyres for passenger cars. This result also puts it ahead of some of the leading products. In a test field with a total of 15 candidates in the wide-ranging 205/55 R16H format for compact cars and vehicles in the lower mid-range category, the Falcon EUROWINTER HS01 achieved sixth place.

For the tenth time in succession, Falken is launching its “Falken says tanks” sales promotion campaign in Germany and Austria as well as other core European markets of the tyres brand. From 15th September until 30th November 2020, customers in participating stores will receive a prepaid card for refuelling and shopping if they buy Falken winter- or all-season tyres.

Some 25 of the world’s best athletes from ten nations are all set to meet at the big Audi Nines Mountain Bike Event, which is taking place from 7th until 12th September 2020 at the Ellweiler Quarry, Birkenfeld in the Hunsrück region of Germany.

A 14th place and a technical failure are the result for Falken at the "ROWE 6-Stunden ADAC Ruhrpokal-Rennen" on the Nürburgring. Nevertheless the team draws a positive balance.

This season, Falken is once again responding to the requirements of car and SUV drivers for safe winter tyres, having extended its range of winter tyres to include several additional dimensions. This also applies to the Falken all-season tyres, which offer safety and a great performance in both the winter and all year round.

Three beautifully shot videos will take them on a virtual road trip along some of Europe’s most beautiful roads and passes, travelling from Zell am See in Austria, across Switzerland, Italy and France, and into Monaco. The Pass the Wheel trailer has already clocked up 1.7 million views on Falken’s YouTube Channel.

Falken Tyre Europe has established a new affiliate programme and support network for its wholesalers and retailers. ‘Falken Zone’ launched in July 2020 in Italy, Spain and Greece – the brand’s key southern European markets – with plans to roll out the new network in other European countries.

After a night shift from Saturday to Sunday, Falken was rewarded with a double finish at the third race of the Nürburgring Endurance Series (NLS) last weekend.

With the lockdown restricting how much we can use our cars for extended periods, tyre brand Falken suggests some quick tips to prevent damage that can occur during longer lay ups.

Falken is once again launching its “Falken says tanks” promotion this spring and is supporting its dealers in the European core markets with its proven sales campaign: End customers who buy a set of Falken summer tyres from 16 inch summer treads AZENIS FK510, AZENIS FK510 SUV, LINAM VAN01, ZIEX ZE310 ECORUN, ZIEX ZE914, WILDPEAK AT or new addition to the Falken portfolio SINCERA SN110 between 15. March and 31. May 2020 will receive a prepaid card for refuelling and shopping. For example, customers in Germany and Austria receive a Shell prepaid card with a credit balance of 20 Euro.

For the fourth time in a row, a Falken summer tyre has achieved the title “exemplary” in the big Auto BILD Summer Tyres Test. This year, the Falken premium model in the ultra-high performance segment, AZENIS FK510, again achieved a place among the top ten of the summer tyres tested, finishing in seventh.

Instead of Christmas presents for customers, Falken decided last year to support an Offenbach-based non-profit organisation with a donation. Thus "Von Herzen zu Herzen gemeinnützige GmbH" was pleased to receive a donation cheque of 5,000 Euros, which was symbolically presented today by Markus Bögner, COO and President of Falken Tyre Europe GmbH, to the founder and managing director of the organisation, Dirk Lünzer.

“In the Azenis FK510 SUV, Falken is launching an all-round successful tyre that produces a secure, very agile feel on all road conditions.” This is the assessment of the independent testers of Gute Fahrt magazine in their summer tyre test, which this year is focusing on SUV tyres.

In every area at home – whether in the city, on country roads and motorways or on light terrain - is the new model of Audi’s A1 Series: the Audi A1 citycarver, commercially available since autumn 2019.

Packed with technology in and under the surface, Falken’s new SINCERA SN110 car tyre aims to bring the wear and wet grip benefits normally found in top-of-the-range tyres to cost-conscious customers driving mass market cars. An A rating for wet weather performance underlines that the tyre doesn’t compromise on safety to achieve the wear benefits.

Tyre brand Falken has confirmed its 2020 motorsport plans, announcing it will run a pair of the latest specification GT3 Porsche 911 GT3 R in both the Nürburgring Endurance Series (formerly known as the VLN) and the Nürburgring 24h race. Falken Motorsports race team, run by Schnabl Engineering for the tenth consecutive year, has ordered a new 991.2 chassis to run alongside its 2019 Porsche. Both cars will be identical in specification.

The tyre brand Falken will present two new tyres at the industry event Auto Mässan, which takes place from 15 to 18 January 2020 in Gothenburg.

The test track that Sumitomo Rubber Europe GmbH (SREU) put into operation in Arnemark, northern Sweden, in December comprises two groomed snow areas, each approx. 15,000 m2, about three times the size of a football pitch, two snow handling courses, each 1,600 metres long, and a 600 metre long ice handling track.

Falken’s parent company, Sumitomo Rubber Industries Ltd (SRI), has developed new technology that utilises artificial intelligence (AI) to predict the properties of rubber and detects how structural changes, due to load and wear, will affect performance throughout a tyre’s lifecycle. The data collected through “Tyre Leap AI Analysis” will support engineers to create longer lasting tyres with more consistent performance over time and is a key element of SRI’s “SMART TYRE CONCEPT”.

Sven Müller’s and Patrick Pilet’s joy in their hard-won second place at the VLN Endurance Championship at the Nürburgring was to be short-lived, after a misdemeanour in a “Code 60 Zone” triggered a subsequent time penalty for Falken, relegating them from second to seventh place.
