Avon ZV7 High-Performance Tire: Optimal Performance and Safety
Exceptional Wet and Dry Grip
Discover the Avon ZV7, a high-performance tire designed to deliver the perfect blend of performance and safety for your passenger car. Engineered with advanced technology, this tire features large circumferential grooves that efficiently channel water away to significantly reduce the risk of aquaplaning.
Innovative Tread Design
The new tread pattern with 3-D sipes ensures quicker warm-up times, enhancing grip on wet roads. This innovation, combined with cutting-edge polymer technology and state-of-the-art compound techniques, provides superior traction on both dry and wet surfaces.
Fuel Efficiency and Protection
The Avon ZV7 not only offers excellent grip but also boasts reduced rolling resistance, contributing to improved fuel efficiency. Additionally, the rim protector safeguards your alloy wheels from curb damage, ensuring they remain in pristine condition.
Noise Reduction and Versatile Sizing
Enjoy a quieter ride thanks to the newly developed noise-reducing features that minimize road noise. Available in a wide range of sizes from 15 to 18 inches in rim diameter and in speed ratings V, W, and Y, the Avon ZV7 caters to various driving needs and preferences. Experience the ultimate in tire performance with the Avon ZV7, where safety meets innovation.
ZV7
A high performance summer tyre with 'A' grade wet grip
For drivers who want the best combination of performance and safety.
Large circumferential grooves clear water quickly to reduce aquaplaning
New tread pattern featuring 3D sipes that help the tyre warm up and optimise wet grip
New polymer technology and advanced mixing techniques provide better wet and dry grip, reducing rolling resistance and greater fuel efficiency
Rim flange protector helps to minimise kerb damage to alloy wheels*
New noise reducing feature - reduces noise from tyre/road interaction
Available in a wide range of fitments from 15' to 18' rim diameters with V, W and Y speed rating
*A rim flange protector is designed to protect the flange area - not the whole wheel. Many modern wheel designs may have domed outward designs well beyond the flange.
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.
