Description
A summer performance tire, the Kinergy Eco2 (K435) from Hankook is designed for use on passenger cars such as coupes, sedans, and CUVs and offers drivers strong traction in wet and dry conditions, improved ride comfort, a long tread life, and a reduced environmental impact. The Kinergy eco2 is a summer tire that has been developed for modern small, compact and mid-range vehicles. Like its predecessor, which returned very good test results, a focus has been placed on optimizing rolling resistance along with a further increase in mileage and noise reduction without compromising a solid performance in wet and dry conditions.
- Tread is designed for use in warmer weather
- Wide lateral grooves incorporated in to the inside blocks deliver hydroplaning resistance for excellent wet handling and braking
- Black sidewall
- Stiff center tread block holds the tread pattern in place as its shape evolves
- Built with wide lateral grooves in its shoulders that remove water from the tire for better handling and braking performance on wet roads
- New compounds improve wet and wear return without sacrificing other performance. Specifically, wear performance is improved by the optimized crosslinking density. Advanced mixing technology with high loading filler and high molecular weight functionalized polymer improves wet and wear performance.
- Optimal widths and positioning of the three channel grooves ensures excellent performance in wet driving conditions. Wide outer grooves provide maximum water evacuation which promotes wet traction keeping the tire cooler in the dry.
- Aqua turbine technology gives improves drainage for longitudinal and lateral traction
- Precisely designed block sizes reduce road noises to improve ride comfort
