The Hankook Winter i*cept evo4 W340 is a winter tyre designed for passenger cars. It combines performance suited to winter conditions with improved driving comfort and a longer service life. Its mileage increases by 14% compared with the previous model, thanks to a design intended to limit tread wear.
The reduction in vulcanisation temperature and the optimised distribution of silica help to reduce rolling resistance. This development helps to limit fuel consumption while promoting more stable driving.
The completely redesigned tread features chamfered blocks as well as an optimised arrangement of the central grooves. This architecture reduces tyre noise emissions in order to provide better acoustic comfort on daily journeys.
On snowy roads, the optimised tread pattern structure improves braking behaviour and enhances traction in difficult winter conditions. The soft rubber compound also promotes a larger contact patch with the road, thereby helping to reduce wear and extend mileage.
