The rally tire “Dynapro R213,” supplied exclusively by Hankook Tire & Technology, proved its off-road tire technology by handling the rough gravel sections of the WRC Rally de Portugal with stability.

Hankook Tire said on the 12th that it successfully wrapped up the 6th round of the 2026 FIA World Rally Championship (WRC), the Rally de Portugal, which was held from the 7th to the 10th in the Matosinhos area of northern Portugal.

The event featured a total of 23 special stages over about 345 kilometers. The course began with soft sandy gravel, then changed into sharp rocks and deeply rutted sections as the stages were repeated, creating demanding conditions for the tires.

During the competition, Hankook Tire’s “Dynapro R213” supported stable race management with its ability to disperse impact and its durability. The company said the tire maintained consistent driving performance even on rapidly changing road surfaces, thanks to the high grip of its soft compound and the durability of its hard compound.

In the race, Thierry Neuville of the Hyundai Shell Mobis World Rally Team took back the lead late in the event to win the title. Hankook Tire also operated a “Brand World” booth in the service park, expanding fan engagement on site through simulator experiences, exhibitions, and merchandise sales.
