Marangoni M-Power is the new precision tool developed by Marangoni’s labs to highlight the performance characteristics of supercars and sports cars.
Imagine resting your ear on the ground, like American Indians used to do, or being able to stroke the grey surface of the bitumen with the palm of your hand, to follow every corner with your eyes and anticipate just what your car is telling you. This is the inspiration that led Marangoni engineers to develop M-Power, our most advanced ultra high performance tyre, a product with a sporting soul, the synthesis of performance and comfort, exclusivity and everyday pleasure.
Thanks to its innovative asymmetrical tread with optimised block binding system, M-Power is a tyre with extremely progressive handling, designed for a sporting drive with maximum comfort, fast but at the same time precise and safe, able to guarantee maximum grip, exceptional road holding when cornering and minimum braking distance. The four longitudinal grooves also reduce the typical aquaplaning effect of closed sporting patterns. M-Power has been designed to highlight the power of high performance sports cars, and combines meticulous scientific research, Marangoni’s extensive racing experience and the latest production methods.
• M-Power is also available in the version for high performance SUVs.
• M-TECH. Perfect synthesis of performance and comfort.
This is the essence of M-Tech, one the most advanced technologies available for the design and production of high performance tyres with progressive handling, developed to offer maxi-mum driving pleasure and the highest possible level of safety.
• Precision, fast response, resistance to aquaplaning, safe braking: for the best results in sporting driving.
The Tire Labeling Ordinance specifies the information requirements on fuel efficiency, wet grip and external rolling noise from tires. In addition, reference is made to the winter properties of the product.
The EU 1222/2009 regulation that has been in force since November 1st, 2012 has been revised and will be replaced by regulation EU 2020/740 from May 1st, 2021; From this point on, new requirements apply. The rating classes for fuel efficiency, wet grip and exterior noise have been changed and the layout of the EU label has been adjusted. The manufacturer's product data sheets stored in the EU database can be downloaded via a QR code integrated into the label. Information on snow grip and ice grip is also newly included for tires that meet these criteria.
The following tires are exempt from the regulation: - tires that are designed exclusively for installation on vehicles that were first registered before October 1, 1990 - retreaded tires (until a corresponding extension of EU VO 2020/740 has taken place) - professional off - Road tires - Racing tires - Tires with additional devices to improve traction, eg studded tires - T-type emergency tires - Tires with a permissible speed below 80 km/h - Tires for rims with a nominal diameter ≤ 254 mm or ≥ 635 mm
The criteria and evaluation classes at a glance
fuel efficiency
The fuel consumption depends on the rolling resistance of the tyres, the vehicle itself, the driving conditions and the driving style of the driver. The measured rolling resistance (rolling resistance coefficient) of the tire is divided into classes A (highest efficiency) to E (lowest efficiency).
If a vehicle is completely equipped with class A tires, a consumption reduction of up to 7.5%* is possible compared to class E tyres. In the case of commercial vehicles, it can even be higher. (Source: European Commission Impact Assessment * when measured according to the test methods set out in Regulation (EU) 2020/740)
Please note: Fuel consumption depends to a large extent on your own driving style and can be significantly reduced by driving in an environmentally friendly manner. Tire pressure should be checked regularly to improve fuel efficiency.
wet grip
Wet grip is divided into classes A (shortest braking distance) - E (longest braking distance).
If a car is equipped with class A tires, compared to class E tires, a braking distance of up to 18 m can be reduced when braking from 80 km/h (on a road surface with average grip).* *Source: wdk Economic Association of the German Rubber Industry eV
Please note: Traffic safety depends to a large extent on your own driving style. The stopping distances must always be observed. Tire pressure should be checked regularly to improve wet grip.
External rolling noise
The noise emitted by a tire affects the overall volume of the vehicle and affects not only your own driving comfort, but also the noise pollution of the environment. In the EU tire label, the external rolling noise is divided into 3 classes from A (lowest rolling noise) - C (highest rolling noise), measured in decibels (dB) and compared with the European noise emission limit values for external tire rolling noise.
A The pictogram with the classification "A" indicates that the tire's external rolling noise is more than 3 dB below the EU limit value in force until 2016. B The "B" classification means that the tyre's external rolling noise is up to 3 dB below or equal to the EU limit value in force until 2016. C The classification "C" indicates that the specified limit value is exceeded.
